ABSTRACT
The prime purpose of a pavement is to transmit loads to the base, sub base and underlying soil. The properties
of aggregates used in pavement depends on gradation and type. In this study the information about the quarries
available in the Bidar district are collected. Every quarry site was inspected and its locations are identified using
GPS. The samples are collected from Humnabad, Bhalki, Aurad, Basavakalyan and Bidar district and tested for
its material properties. The properties of coarse aggregates available in the district are compared with the
standards of Dense Bituminous Macadam and Bituminous Concrete as per MORTH specifications. The mobile
application is developed which fetches all the information about aggregates available and its location for the
contractors, engineers and any other customers.

per MORTH. Hence require blending of aggregates.
The Mobile App developed will give the information
about quarries of aggregates which is handier for the
costumer to select the aggregate type as per
requirement.
