2.1 The bulk density determined by this test method is for aggregate in an oven-dry condition. If the bulk density in terms of saturated-surface-dry (SSD) condition is desired, use the exact procedure in this test method, and then calculate the SSD bulk density using the following formula: Mssd = M1 + (4/100)] where: MsSD = bulk density in SSD condition, lb/ft° [kg/m³], and = % absorption, determined in accordance with Test Method C 127 or Test Method C 128. Void Content-Calculate the void content in the aggregate using the bulk density determined by either the rodding, jigging, or shoveling procedure, as follows: % Voids = 100[(S × W) – My(S × W) where: = bulk density of the aggregate, lb/ft [ kg/m²], = bulk specific gravity (dry basis) as determined in accordance wwith Test Method C 127 or Test Method SA C 128, and = density of water, 62.3 lb/ft [998 kg/m³].
