Percent Voids in Mineral Aggregate - VMA<br />
VMA, % = 100 -<br />
( G mb * P s )<br />
G sb<br />
Where:<br />
G mb = Bulk Specific Gravity <strong>of</strong> mix<br />
P s = percent aggregate in total mix<br />
G sb = Bulk Specific Gravity <strong>of</strong> aggregate<br />
Based on the information known:<br />
G mb = 2.421<br />
P s = 95.0 %<br />
G sb = 2.655<br />
VMA = 100 -<br />
( 2.421 * 95.0 )<br />
2.655<br />
= 13.4<br />
