  2. Soil gradation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soil_Gradation

    A poorly-graded soil is a soil that does not have a good representation of all sizes of particles from the no. 4 to no. 200 sieve. A poorly-graded gravel is classified as GP, while a poorly-graded sand is classified as SP. Poorly-graded soils are more susceptible to soil liquefaction than well-graded soils. [1]

  3. Unified Soil Classification System - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unified_Soil...

    For example, GW-GM corresponds to "well-graded gravel with silt." If the soil has more than 15% by weight retained on a #4 sieve (R #4 > 15%), there is a significant amount of gravel, and the suffix "with gravel" may be added to the group name, but the group symbol does not change. For example, SP-SM could refer to "poorly graded SAND with silt ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gravel

    Gravel (largest fragment in this photo is about 40 mm (1.6 in)) Gravel (/ ˈ ɡ r æ v əl /) is a loose aggregation of rock fragments.Gravel occurs naturally on Earth as a result of sedimentary and erosive geological processes; it is also produced in large quantities commercially as crushed stone.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AASHTO_Soil_Classification...

    The AASHTO Soil Classification System was developed by the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials, and is used as a guide for the classification of soils and soil-aggregate mixtures for highway construction purposes.

  6. Construction aggregate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Construction_aggregate

    In Europe, sizing ranges are specified as d/D, where the d shows the smallest and D shows the largest square mesh grating that the particles can pass. Application-specific preferred sizings are covered in European Standard EN 13043 for road construction, EN 13383 for larger armour stone, EN 12620 for concrete aggregate, EN 13242 for base layers of road construction, and EN 13450 for railway ...

  8. Sieve analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sieve_analysis

    A sieve analysis (or gradation test) is a practice or procedure used in geology, civil engineering, [1] and chemical engineering [2] to assess the particle size distribution (also called gradation) of a granular material by allowing the material to pass through a series of sieves of progressively smaller mesh size and weighing the amount of material that is stopped by each sieve as a fraction ...

  9. Quarter minus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quarter_minus

    Quarter minus is mostly used as filler aggregate for bigger aggregate, empty space between two different sized aggregate, vehicle parking grade, and landscape surfaces. A positive of using quarter minus as a landscape aggregate is that it does not provide a home for pests and does not decompose like other landscape aggregates like wood-chips ...
