The purpose of this research was to determine the effects of aggregate size and gradation on the unit weight, strength, porosity, and permeability of pervious concrete mixtures. The water-cement ratio (w/c) and cement-aggregate ratio (c/a) were kept constant at 0.29 and 0.22, respectively, with a design unit weight of 2002 kg/m3(125 lb/ft3).

The gradation and size test (Figure 1) is used to determine aggregate particle size distribution. Size distribution is perhaps the single most important aggregate quality …
The notes give information on the chemical make-up of aggregates, properties of aggregate, gradation, exacting aggregate, and using aggregates in applications. Also, a concrete repair class was developed with lecture notes and a video to help further fundamental topics of concrete repair and the materials used.

demonstrate the importance of aggregate gradation for reducing the paste content of a mixture. However, the aggregate gradation with the minimum voids content does not …
Most specifications require coarse and fine aggregate to conform to the requirements, including the gradation, of ASTM C33. Concrete producers then use that material to make concrete, the properties of which are quite dependent on the aggregate gradation, both coarse and fine. ... This presents a conflict — if the aggregate …
Navarrete and Lopez [6] and Barbosa et al. [4] proposed to evaluate the concrete segregation via an image processing based technique. Ke and Beaucour [8] proposed a methodology that consists in ...
Aggregate gradation and its effect on the performance of the Hot-Mix Asphalt (HMA) has been studied for many years. Various studies, e.g. (Kandhal et al. 1998; Nukunya et al. 2001; Birgisson et al. 2004) have shown that there is a clear relationship between the aggregate gradation and the ability of the HMA to resist the …
The 'American Standard for Testing and Materials' (commonly known as ASTM) provides guidelines for gradation of aggregates so that the concrete mix made …
The aggregate gradation distribution of concrete is essentially a geometric problem, but because of the nonlinearity and complexity of aggregate particle size, it is difficult to define it accurately by traditional geometry methods, and thus fractal theory provides a new and effective way to quantitatively describe the gradation characteristics
Most modern concrete mixtures have more than 70% of their volume composed of aggregate. Aggregate is typically an inexpensive ingredient that can reduce the amount of shrinkage and subsequent cracking. However, proportioning high aggregate volumes in a mixture is a complex subject. The gradation, volume, shape, and texture of aggregates …

By inputting sieve size analysis (gradation) information for up to three coarse aggregates and two fine aggregates, and the relative percent of each aggregate to be used in the …
In PCC, gradation helps determine durability, porosity, workability, cement and water requirements, strength, and shrinkage. Because of this, gradation is a primary concern in HMA and PCC mix design and thus most agencies specify allowable aggregate gradations for both. Maximum Aggregate Size
This paper presents a part of a research program on the usage of the pumice of Isparta, Turkey, for a lightweight aggregate concrete [5], [6]. It was aimed to obtain a lightweight aggregate concrete with an optimum strength for a minimum density by introducing convenient admixtures and a proper grading. 2. Materials used2.1. …
