1. Scope

1.1 This specification covers crushed steel slag coarse and fine aggregates suitable for use in bituminous paving mixtures.

1.2 Steel slag coarse and fine aggregates shall be used entirely (Note 0) or combined with other mineral aggregates covered in Specification D 692 or D 1073, to produce paving mixtures as described in Specification D 3515 or D 4215.

Note 1When 100 % of the coarse aggregate in a bituminous mixture is steel slag, the amount of steel slag fines in that mixture may be limited to prevent bulking.

1.3 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. The values shown in parentheses are for information only.

1.4 The text of this specification references notes and footnotes which provide explanatory material. These notes and footnotes (excluding those in tables and figures) shall not be considered as requirements of the standard.

2. Referenced Documents (purchase separately) The documents listed below are referenced within the subject standard but are not provided as part of the standard.
