Answer» विद्युत फ्लक्स का मात्रक है The moisture present in aggregate forms a film around each particle. These films of moisture exert a force, known assurface tension,on each particle. Due to this surface tension each particles gets away from each other. Because of this no direct contact is possible among individual particles and this causes bulking of the volume. Bulking of aggregate is dependent upon two factors, Percentage of moisture contentParticle size of fine aggregate Bulking increases with increase in moisture content upto a certain limit and beyond that the further increase in moisture content results in decrease in volume. When the fine aggregate is completely saturated it does not show any bulking. Fine sand bulks more as compared to coarse sand, i.e. percentage of bulking in indirectly proportional to the size of particle. |
