Mortar Testing for Alkali Reactivity of Aggregates Demonstrated ASTM C1260 Alkali Silica Reaction

Sieve analysis of aggregates The sieve analysis determines the gradation (the distribution of aggregate particles, by size, within a given sample) in order to determine compliance with design, production control requirements, and verification specifications. The gradation data may be used to calculate relationships between various aggregate or aggregate blends, to check compliance with such blends, and to predict trends during production by plotting gradation curves graphically, to name just a f
