Long Term Pavement Performance Project Laboratory Materials Testing and Handling Guide

Protocol H20L
Accelerated Polishing of Aggregate Using the British Wheel (SC13)

This LTPP protocol covers the procedures for determining the polish value of aggregates used for the chip seals used as part of the SPS-3 studies. The tests will be performed in accordance with AASHTO T279-83, Accelerated Polishing of Aggregate Using the British Wheel.

The results will be recorded on LTPP Test Sheet H18.
