ASTM D7172
1. Scope
1.1 This test method covers the determination of the relative density (specific gravity) and absorption of fine aggregates.
1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as the standard.
1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
