About ISI Marked - Flakiness Gauge

Purpose:

Used to determine the percentage of particles in a coarse aggregate material that have a thickness (smallest dimension) of less than one-half of the nominal size. Particle is flaky when its thickness (smallest dimension) is less than 0.6 of the mid-size of the sieve fraction.

Significance and Use:

Aggregates which are flaky and/or elongated will often lower the workability of a concrete mix and may also affect long term durability. In bituminous mixtures, flaky aggregate makes for a harsh mix and may also crack and break up during compaction by rolling.

Construction Details:

It consists of aCRC Sheet frame with M.S. sliding panel.
The panel has slots, which are accurately cut, in standard different length and width.
Gauge has seven labeled slots for rapid hand trying of particles from each of the seven sieve cuts.
Having following Normal Aperture size as per India Standard : 63, 50, 40, 31.5, 25, 20, 16, 12.5, 10, 6.3 mm

FAQs of ISI Marked - Flakiness Gauge:

Q: How is the ISI Marked Flakiness Gauge used in aggregate testing?

A: To use the Flakiness Gauge, aggregate particles are passed through designated slots corresponding to their nominal size. Particles that pass through slots with thickness less than half their nominal size are classified as flaky as per IS:2386 (Part-1) standards. The percentage of flakiness is then calculated manually.

Q: What materials are used in the construction of this flakiness gauge?

A: The gauge is constructed from mild steel with a chrome-plated or ISI-standard finish. It is also chemically treated or polished, providing excellent resistance to corrosion and enhancing durability.

Q: When is this device typically required in construction processes?

A: The Flakiness Gauge is most commonly used during the quality control phase of aggregate preparation for concrete or road construction. It helps verify that aggregates meet the necessary specifications for flakiness before incorporation into the final mix.

Q: Where can the ISI Marked Flakiness Gauge be used?

A: Thanks to its portable and robust design, the Flakiness Gauge can be used both in civil engineering laboratories and directly on construction sites. Its carrying case ensures safe transportation to various field locations.

Q: What is the testing process using this gauge?

A: Aggregate samples are first sized, and each specimen is individually tested by passing it through the relevant slots on the gauge. The tester identifies flaky particles as those passing through slots less than half their nominal size and then records the results for analysis.

Q: What are the benefits of using an ISI Marked Flakiness Gauge?

A: By strictly adhering to ISI standards, the gauge ensures accurate, repeatable results for flakiness analysis. Its sturdy, corrosion-resistant construction guarantees longevity and dependable results even under repeated use, making it a valuable tool for quality assurance in construction projects.

Q: Does the Flakiness Gauge require any power supply for operation?

A: No power supply is needed, as the gauge operates fully manually. All measurements and assessments are performed by hand, offering immediate results during testing.
