Abstract Construction sector and construction activities are considered to be one of the major sources of economic growth‚ development and economic activities. Construction and engineering services industry play an important role in the economic uplift and development of the country. It can be regarded as a mechanism of generating the employment and offering job opportunities to millions of unskilled‚ semi-skilled and skilled work force. It also plays key role in generating income in both formal

other properties of the mixture just meet the Superpave design requirements‚ no job mix formula is drawn from this mix design because the dust proportion of the mixture is far out of the requirements. We may need to change the blend gradation of aggregate. The blend in this mix design produced a gradation‚ as shown in Figure 1‚ that was close to the maximum criteria for the 2.36mm sieve and the 0.075mm sieve and passed above the restricted zone‚ so this blend was probably a fine blend.

The Page Impact test is not carried out now-a-days and has alsobeen omitted from the revised British Standard for testing mineral aggregates. The aggregate impact testhas been standardized by the British Standard Institution and the Indian Standard Institution.The aggregate impact value indicates a relative measure of the resistance of aggregate to a sudden shockor an impact‚ which in some aggregates differs from its resistance to a slow

Recommendations for proportioning pumpable concrete suggest optimum gradation of aggregates; outline water‚ cement‚ and admixture requirements; and emphasize the need for evaluation of trial mixes for pumpability. The importance of saturating lightweight aggregates is stressed. Suggestions are given for layout of lines; for maintaining uniform delivery rate‚ as well as uniform quality of concrete at the end of the line;
