Strength tests, such as the aggregate crushing value (ACV) and aggregate impact value (AIV), assess the aggregate's ability to withstand stresses. Typical ACV limits are 30% for concrete wearing surfaces and 45% for other concrete applications, while AIV limits range from 20% to 30% depending on the desired concrete strength.
