Los Angeles Abrasion Test on Aggregate
These procedure steps will be followed on the simulator
- When you open Los Angeles Abrasion test file simulation, a window will open as shown below, click on Description to understand the terminologies, click on NEXT button to proceed. 
  
- Select the grade of aggregate to be used in the test and note down its specification. Click on NEXT button to proceed. 
  
- Click on each sieve to arrange them in ascending order of their size, click on the sample to pass it through the sieve. 
  
- Click on the set of sieves to place it on the sieve shaker. Click ON to sieve the aggregate. 
  
- Answer the question by selecting the correct answer to proceed with the simulation. 
  
- Click on 12.5 mm sieve and 10mm sieve to weigh the aggregate retained on it W1(g). Click on NEXT button to proceed. 
  
- Open the cover of Los Angeles Abrasion test drum by clicking on the bolts to remove them. 
  
- Click on the aggregates and abrasive charge to add them to the cylinder, answer the question to proceed with the simulation. 
  
- Click on the machine to rotate the drum, the number of rotation and time taken is noted. 
  
- Click on the sieve to arrange them, click on trowel to add the stone dust to sieve 1.7mm, then place the set of sieves in shaker. 
  
- Weigh the material coarser than 1.7mm size and obtain the weight W2(g). Click on NEXT button to proceed. 
  
- Note down the observation and calculate the percentage wear, also go through the inference.
