Question
Please solve this question in step by step in hand- It is transportation-2 Civil engineering Question-3 The Marshall method was used to design an asphalt concrete mixture. asphalt with a specific gravity (Gb) of 1.031 was used. Three stockpiles of aggregates were used to manufacture this asphalt concrete mixture. The theoretical maximum specific gravity of the mix (Gmm) at asphalt content of 5.5 % was 2.489. Trial mixes were made with average results as shown in the following table: Bulk Specific Gravity of compacted specimen Asphalt content (P,) (% by weight of mix) ( "2) 2.358 4.0 4.5 5.0 2.375 2.392 5.5 2.402 6.0 2.416 Estimate the VTM (i.e., Voids in total mix) at an asphalt content at 4.0%, 4.5%, 5.0%, 5.5% and 6%.
