sand and grit particles are held together by a fine grained matrix rich in clays As can be seen in Figure 3 even though there may be a large proportion of clay minerals present as the binding matrix they have not absorbed the blue dye indicating they are the inert non absorbent type LPS 124 2002 www soci org ISSN 1353 114X 5 Figure 1
The test is performed for determining the clay content in the fines fraction of the aggregates The set includes 47 D0439 C1 50 cc burette with stopcock
This Methylene Blue solution is titrated stepwise in 0 5 ml aliquots from the burette into the beakers containing the fine aggregate solution while continually stirring the fine aggregate solution keeping the fine aggregate in suspension After each addition of the Methylene Blue solution stirring is
