The quality of concrete is usually controlled by mix design. There are many factors in concrete. The influence of aggregate grading on concrete properties is analyzed in this report.
Strength, static and dynamic modulus of elasticity were taken up as concrete properties. The special discussion was focused on fineness modulus (F.M.) and distribution curves of aggregate grading by the sieve analysis.
Being judged from the results of these investigations, distribution curves, especially DIN-1045, is an index of aggregate grading superior to F.M.
