Abstract
The purpose of this research is particle shape evaluation of granular soil and aggregate using Digital Image Process(DIP). DIP is very useful to measure the roughness and particle shape of aggregates. Couple of aggregates, like standard sand, two different crushed stones, and two different marine aggregates, have been employed. Shape factor of two different marine aggregates is ranged 0.35 to 0.54. Crushed stone I is that of 0.74 which is highly flat, but standard sand is elongated shape. Especially, two marine aggregate showed a big difference of width and length which meaned a long shape. There is any significant difference of elongation ratio and flakiness for each aggregate with different measuring system, like direct measurement of vernier calipers and DIP method. Within the limited test results, DIP is one of useful to get the particle shape of aggregate with limitation of measuring errors and to apply the particle distribution curve.
