Problem 1: (8 Points): Calculate the effective asphalt content of the optimum mix given the following mix data. Asphalt content (Optimum) = 6.4% Specific gravity of Asphalt = 1.01 Effective specific gravity of the aggregates = 2.72 Aggregates properties and percentages per total weight of the mixture are shown in the table. Percentage by weight Aggregate Bulk specific gravity of total mixture Coarse 55.93 2.51 Fine 35.74 2.74 Mineral Filler 8.33 2.69
