Find the percents of air voids, VMA, and VFA.
Mass of binder, Mb = kg (write to one decimal place)
Mass of aggregate, Mg = kg (write to one decimal place)
Mass of absorbed binder, Mba = kg (write to one decimal place)
Volume of binder, Vb = m3 (write to THREE decimal places)
Volume of aggregate, Vg = m3 (write to THREE decimal places)
Volume of absorbed binder, Vba = m3 (write to THREE decimal places)
Volume of effective binder, Vbe = m3 (write to THREE decimal places)
Volume of air, Va = m3 (write to THREE decimal places)
Air voids, AV = % (write to one decimal place)
Voids in mineral aggregate, VMA = % (write to one decimal place)
Voids filled with asphalt, VFA = % (write to one decimal place)
