An aggregate grading following the 0.45 Power Gradation Chart method will produce the maximum possible density of aggregate materials, minimizing voids and therefore water and cement requirements. Aggregate: A mixture of coarse to fine-grained particulate material used in construction, typically including sand, gravel, and crushed stone. To see more styles, point to a style, and then click . Tip:Axis labels are different from axis titles you can add to describe what is shown on the axes.

The designer can also see at a glance exactly where the aggregate grading needs to be altered in order to optimize a continuously graded aggregate mix for the concrete.

After you create a chart, you might want to change the way that table rows and columns are plotted in the chart. Bar charts illustrate comparisons among individual items. After that, i don't know what i'm doing. I can't provide specifics because I don't even understand what I'm trying to create really. 1. I'm trying to plot a gradation on a .45 chart. The data points in a pie chart are shown as a percentage of the whole pie. However, since the restricted zones original inception, NCHRP Report 464 The Restricted Zone in the Superpave Aggregate Gradation Specification has concluded that gradations that violated the restricted zone performed similarly to or better than the mixes having gradations passing outside the restricted zone; therefore, the restricted zone requirement is redundant for mixes meeting all Superpave volumetric parametersIt has been recommended to delete references to the restricted zone as either a requirement or a guideline from the AASHTO specification (AASHTO MP 2) and practice (AASHTO PP 28) for Superpave volumetric mix design. (Kandhal and Cooley, 2001[2]). The designer can also see at a glance exactly where the aggregate grading needs to be altered in order to optimize a continuously graded aggregate mix for the concrete. This is particularly the case for larger pours where aggregates are cheaply available. The files at the links below are intended for use by approved Aggregate Producers listed in PennDOT Publication 34 (Bulletin 14) for documenting Aggregate Producer Quality Control (QC) data. performed on one or more references. When you create a chart, you can select from many chart types (for example, a stacked column chart or a 3-D exploded pie chart). 3Q`Nb8W ^.4xf#PVb.K5Rt0y[
SK8cp;SqYX`#nV As a rule, consider using a line chart instead of a non-stacked area chart, because data from one series can be hidden behind data from another series. To see the results of your changes, switch back to Word or PowerPoint. Like a pie chart, a doughnut chart shows the relationship of parts to a whole, but it can contain more than one data series. The term generally applies to dense graded aggregate. What is the type of gradation? This analysis tool includes the 0.45 Power Gradation Chart method along with two other methods to allow the designer to fully analyze the suitability of the proposed grading of aggregates for a concrete mix. You can help keep this site running by allowing ads on MrExcel.com. A sieve analysis test was performed on a sample of aggregate and produced the following results. FHWA 1618. It might be reasonable to believe that the best gradation is one that produces the maximum density. Create a chart. Add or edit the Horizontal Axis or Vertical Axisoptions to meet your needs. You're welcome. hbbd```b``"H``Jl fH dHb4A$!1@ Z The AGGREGATE function can apply different aggregate functions to a list or database with the option to ignore hidden rows and error values.

To illustrate how the maximum density curves in Figure 1 are determined, Table 1 shows the associated calculations for a maximum aggregate size of 19.0 mm. endstream

The restricted zone was eliminated in 2002, but you may still see some reference to it in historical documents. Thanks for the incredible website! 100% stacked columnA 100% stacked column chart shows values in 2-D columns that are stacked to represent 100%. You must have JavaScript enabled to use this form. This shows that even a small amount of particles passing the 0.075-mm (#200) sieve results in very low permeability. Number in parentheses indicates the allowable deviations ( ) from the target value. Refers to a gradation that contains only a small percentage of aggregate particles in the small range. Select the rightmost three columns then, from the ribbon, select Insert > Scatter chart > Line with Markers. Some Representative Gradation Specifications for Aggregate Courses from the 1996 FHWA Standard Specifications for Construction of Roads and Bridges on Federal Highway Projects (FP-96).

The tool also includes two complimentary analysis techniques along with the 0.45 Power Gradation Chart method, the tool includes analysis modules based on the Coarseness Factor Chart method and the Tarantula Curve method. Options are set with the options argument. The AGGREGATE function is designed for columns of data, or vertical ranges. The grading of aggregates is very important in order to ensure that the aggregate and cement paste matrix contains the correct proportions of aggregates and paste. A gradation that, when plotted on the 0.45 power gradation graph, falls mostly above the 0.45 power maximum density line. Select a chart on the Recommended Charts tab, to preview the chart.

The term generally applies to dense graded aggregate. Keystone State. Depending on the data you have, you can create a column, line, pie, bar, area, scatter, or radar chart. Note: You can select the data you want in the chart and press ALT + F1 to create a chart immediately, but it might not be the best chart for the data. The last 6 functions require all four arguments:function_numspecifies the operation,optionssets various behaviors,ref1is the array of values to process, and ref2 is the "second argument" for the function being called. Go to the dummy series. Select Insert > Recommended Charts. Data thats arranged in columns or rows on a worksheet can be plotted in a column chart. To plot specific data into a chart, you can also select the data. The straight line was formatted to be a dashed line with no markers. Data that is arranged in columns or rows on a worksheet can be plotted in a radar chart. The formulas in D8:D10 demonstrate how to return "nth largest" values: The function number here is 14, which runs the LARGE function. Several other methods are used to optimize aggregate gradings in concrete including the Coarseness Factor Chart method and the Tarantula Curve method. Required fields are marked *. Data that is arranged in columns or rows on a worksheet can be plotted in a line chart. endstream

Proudly founded in 1681 as a place of tolerance and freedom. Furthermore, a well designed and economical mixture will effectively use the aggregate to reduce the amount of paste in a mixture, but still achieve the required workability, which is called optimized graded concrete. Numeric arguments 2 to 253 for which you want the aggregate value. It is however a useful tool for some concrete pavement works where workability and density of the finished concrete must be optimized and can be used on most concrete projects to reduce costs. You are a life saver! *W-ICM` The aggregate grading can also be optimized to reduce the quantity of cement required reducing the cost. The AGGREGATE function takes four arguments:function_num, options, ref1, and ref2.

Add or edit the Chart Title to meet your needs. For these reasons the 0.45 Power Method is not commonly used in conventional concrete design, it is however sometimes used for evaluating proposed aggregate mixes. The links below provide the applicable forms and files that make up the PennDOT Aggregate Plant Book. The third column, Ref2, indicates the "second argument" expected by the last 6 functions. JavaScript is disabled. It was originally observed that mixes closely following the 0.45 power maximum density line in the finer gradations sometimes had unacceptably low VMA. FHWA 1616.

Click Chart Title to choose title format options, and then return to the chart to type a title in the Chart Title box. For example, to find the MAX value on Mondays, with data that includes dates and values, you could use AGGREGATE like this: Here we specify 14 for function (LARGE) and 6 for option(ignore errors).

Such a continuous grading would improve the workability of the fresh concrete, reducing water content and therefore increasing strength.
