Q: Pycnometer, wire mesh bucket and water are used to calculate which characteristic property of the coarse aggregate?
  • A. Crushing strength
  • B. Attrition
  • C. Impact value
  • D. Specific gravity
Correct Answer: Option D - Specific gravity of soil can be measured by– (1) 50 ml density bottle (2) 500 ml flask (3) Pycnometer–Pycnometer, wire mesh bucket calculate the specific gravity of the coarse aggregate. • Density bottle method is the most accurate amongst all and is suitable for all types of soil.
