Grain Size Distribution Chart

This aggregate gradation chart shows the grain size distribution of a sample. It displays the percentage of the sample retained on or passing through different sieve sizes ranging from 3 inches to 0.001 inches. It also includes hydrometer analysis data measuring particles smaller than 0.05mm. The chart is used to classify soils and ensure aggregates meet specifications for construction projects.
