Analysis of (cylindrical) samples of asphalt concrete, in terms of weight and size distribution of different fractions of aggregates and by means of mechanical methods is a complicated and time consuming process. This article presents a proposal of a method for the same kind of analysis, but without the need for machining. The suggested method is based solely on a computer based analysis of photographs of the samples. The mechanism described in this paper is only a preliminary process, illustrating the potential use of an image analysis for this type of study.
