ASTM C136 / AASHTO T 27 is the test method used for the sieve analysis of construction aggregates and specifies the mass of the sample to be tested based on the maximum particle size. This same standard also limits the maximum quantity of material retained on each sieve to enable adequate separation and avoid damage to the sieve mesh.

Oct 25, 2019 Importance of Aggregate Gradation of concrete slab. Aggregate is commonly considered inert filler, which accounts for 60 to 80 percent of the volume and 70 to 85 percent of the weight of concrete. Although aggregate is considered inert filler, it is a necessary component that defines the concrete’s thermal and elastic properties and
Gradation and Size. The particle size distribution, or gradation, of an aggregate is one of the most influential aggregate characteristics in determining how it will perform as a pavement material. In HMA, gradation helps determine almost every important property including stiffness, stability, durability, permeability, workability, fatigue
