Gradations are expressed on the basis of the total percent passing, which indicates the total percent of aggregate by weight that will pass a given size sieve. Some of the descriptive terms used in referring to aggregate gradation are: (a) Coarse aggregate - all of the material retained on the No. 10 sieve (2.00 mm).

Washing and classifying of aggregate can be considered in two parts, depending on the size range of material. Coarse material: Generally above 3/8 in. (sometimes split at 1/4 in. or #4 mesh). In the washing process it usually is desired to remove foreign, objectionable material, including fine particles.

Classification of aggregate gradation for concrete slab The most common classification of aggregates on the basis of bulk specific gravity is lightweight, normal-weight, and heavyweight aggregates. In normal concrete the aggregate weighs 1,520 - 1,680 kg/m 3, but occasionally designs require either lightweight or heavyweight concrete.

Gradation directly affects both quality and costs of concrete, because to bind aggregates into one solid unit demands that each particle be completely coated by the cementing paste and, in addition, that paste fill all space between the particles. Excessive space hinders making a mix uniform, and requires additional paste to fill useless voids.
