The objective of this study was to classify the aggregates into spherical, flat, elongated and flat, and elongated shapes, collected from impact crusher and jaw crusher of two sources, and to calculate the shape parameters, such as aspect ratio, shape factor, form factor, sphericity, roundness, and angularity index. In addition, this study also investigated the effects of this classification on the Marshall stability and volumetric properties of asphalt mixtures prepared from the respective shape of aggregates. The results showed that the aggregate of different fractions (passing 37.5 mm and retained on 4.75 mm) produced from the jaw crusher of Margalla quarry showed better shape parameters. The spherical aggregates collected from all crushers showed 20�30 higher Marshall stability of the blends by improving the mechanical and volumetric properties of the asphalt mixtures. © 2021 by the authors.
