TEST RESULTS OBTAINED ON LIMESTONE FROM DIFFERENT LOCATIONS WERE USED TO INVESTIGATE THE RELATIONS OF PROPERTIES OF LIMESTONE. A RELATION WAS FOUND BETWEEN ABRASION WEAR OBTAINED IN THE LOS ANGELES ABRASION TEST AND EACH OF THE FOLLOWING: COMPRESSIVE STRENGTH, IMPACT VALUE, AND SPECIFIC GRAVITY. A NOMOGRAPHIC SOLUTION FOR THE PHYSICAL PROPERTIES IS PRESENTED; ONCE ONE OF THE PROPERTIES IS KNOWN, THE OTHER PROPERTIES CAN BE ESTIMATED BY USING THE NOMOGRAPH. AN INVESTIGATION WAS MADE OF THE RELATION BETWEEN ABRASION WEAR AND CHEMICAL COMPOSITION, AND NO SIGNIFICANT RELATION WAS FOUND.
