The precision estimates were obtained from theanalysis <strong>of</strong> combined AASHTO Materials Reference Laboratory referencesample data from laboratories using 15- to 19-hour saturation times <strong>and</strong>other laboratories using 24 ± 4 hours saturation time. Testing was performedon normal weight <strong>aggregate</strong>s, <strong>and</strong> started with <strong>aggregate</strong>s in the oven-drycondition.B Precision estimates are based on <strong>aggregate</strong>s with <strong>absorption</strong>s <strong>of</strong> less than1 percent <strong>and</strong> may dif fer for manufacturered <strong>fine</strong> <strong>aggregate</strong>s <strong>and</strong> <strong>fine</strong><strong>aggregate</strong>s having <strong>absorption</strong> values greater than 1 percent.
