Los Angeles Abrasion Test
The Los Angeles (L.A.) abrasion test is a common test method used to indicate aggregate toughness and abrasion characteristics. The principle of Los Angeles abrasion test is to produce abrasive action by use of standard steel balls which when mixed with aggregates and rotated in a drum for specific number of revolutions also causes impact on aggregates. The percentage wear of the aggregates due to rubbing with steel balls is determined and is known as Los Angeles Abrasion Value Our soil laboratory software “CiviLab” facilitates the data processing of this test and reduces the required time. Also, CiviLab allows you to provide high quality reports and archive them properly.
