Subject: Request for Testing in Relation to Research Project

This is to relate with conducting specific tests in the laboratory as part of ongoing research
project titled "Reclaimed Asphalt Material for Use as Asphalt Binder/Wearing Course in Road
Construction."

For this phase of the project, it is imperative to evaluate the heating effect on the aggregate
material properties. To accomplish this, we require the following tests to be conducted in the
laboratory:

Testing: Los Angeles Abrasion Value (LAAV) & Aggregate Impact Value (AIV)
Testing Class: Class B & C
Preheat Temperature: Room Temperature, 150°C, 200°C, 250°C, 300°C, 350°C

These tests will provide crucial insights into the behavior of the aggregate material under
different preheat temperatures, which is essential for our research objectives.
