... 20 This chapter first verifies the accuracy and repeatability of the FTI results by comparing the dimension results using FTI results by different operators to manual measurements of the particles with standard shapes, such as triangular prism, circulate plate, and lens. After that, there are two sets of coarse aggregates, including seven types of aggregates in Aggregate Set 1 (hereinafter referred to as Set 1)

... 22 morphological parameters presented are sphericity, flatness ratio, elongation ratio, angularity, and texture. Each mean value of the morphological parameter in this table represents the mean value of the 30 aggregate particles of each type of aggregate within a specific size range.
