Procedures
This Excel workbook allows the user to input the mix design, sieve analysis results and aggregate percentages. It
creates the chart needed for the cumulative aggregate percent passing selection to meet NDOR gradation band
limits. Email submissions are preferred but will be accepted by fax or postal mail to the Engineer.
Worksheet Tabs Description
Mix Description
This color tab is for the Contractor input material source information of cementitious materials (CM), admixture
sources and aggregate description.
Contractor Mix Design
This color tab is for the mix design for the input of weights for all ingredients including interground/blended
cements, aggregates, water, admixtures type and water cement ratio. The proportion of the materials will
automatically appear for the target mix design for 1 cubic yard.
Mix Design Test Results
This color tab is for the data input for the concrete fresh properties and mechanical properties.
Contractor Target Aggregate Gradation (TAG)
This color represents the input for project information and sieve analysis according to material source/type.
This color will allow the user to determine an optimum combined aggregate blend by checking each individual
sieve size analysis, which meet the gradation band limits
This color will allow the user to recognize each individual sieve size by combined percent passing not meeting
the gradation band limits
Specification Class R Chart (Gradation Band)
The chart is based on the 0.45 power grading chart concept. It was created by plotting the cumulative percent
passing (y-axis) vs. the sieve sizes raised to 0.45 power (x-axis). The chart displays the Maximum and Minimum
limits for Class R Gradation Band by plotting the cumulative percent passing vs. the sieve sizes. The cumulative
percent passing must be within the gradation band and should not deviate beyond the maximum and minimum
tolerance limits shown in green.
