Gradation Test
Aggregate gradation can be generally described by a few broadly defined gradation categories; each one describing a general type of gradation. These categories are: Dense or well-graded. Refers to a gradation that is near the FHWA's 0.45 power curve for maximum density. The most common HMA mix designs in the U.S. tend to use dense graded ...

A DEM-based framework to optimize the gradation of concrete aggregate
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

Aggregate Gradation Matters
From Fuller's maximum density curve, the .45 power curve, 8-18, gap grading to the latest "tarantula," the aggregate gradation has a major impact on performance. The aggregate suspension method, recently published by ACI 211, illustrates this clearly, as the dry rodded bulk density of blended coarse aggregate is used to determine the ...

Implementation of concrete aggregate optimization
Achieving an optimized gradation generally requires the combination of at least three differently sized aggregates. This is in contrast to most concretes, which typically contain two aggregates: a fine aggregate, generally with a large percentage passing the 2.36-mm (No. 8) sieve, and a coarse aggregate with very few gradation-based restrictions.
