The document describes tests performed on coarse aggregates to determine their specific gravity, absorption, and other properties. Multiple samples were tested according to ASTM and BS standards.

Tests were performed to determine the specific gravity, absorption, bulk specific gravity, apparent specific gravity of coarse aggregates using methods like ASTM C127 and C128.

Properties like oven dry bulk specific gravity, SSD bulk specific gravity, apparent specific gravity, and absorption of coarse aggregates were measured.
