Coarse aggregate must meet the requirements of which section of the Standard Specifications?

  1. Section 900

  2. Section 901

  3. Section 902

  4. Section 903

The correct answer is: Section 901

Coarse aggregate standards are critical to ensuring the quality of concrete used in construction. The specific requirements for coarse aggregate are outlined in Section 901 of the Standard Specifications. This section details the quality, grading, and physical properties that coarse aggregates must meet to be deemed acceptable for use in concrete mixes. Ensuring that coarse aggregates meet these standards is essential because they significantly affect the strength, durability, and overall performance of the concrete. Proper adherence to Section 901 helps prevent issues such as inadequate bonding, separation, and reduced structural integrity in the finished product.
