The grading of machine-made sand refers to the proportion of sand particles of different sizes. Different machine-made sand grading methods have different application scenarios and advantages. Let's take a look at several common machine-made sand grading methods and their specific applications.
Application of different grading methods
Single grading
Single grading refers to the use of sand of a single particle size to prepare concrete. This grading method has the advantage of being simple and easy to implement, but it is easy to cause the gaps between the sand to be too large, affecting the density and strength of the concrete. Therefore, single grading is suitable for projects that do not require high concrete strength.
Double grading
Double grading refers to the use of two different particle sizes of sand to prepare concrete. This grading method can increase the density of concrete, improve its strength and durability. Therefore, double grading can meet the requirements of different projects for concrete performance and is a more commonly used grading method.
Three-gradation
Three-gradation refers to the use of three different particle sizes of sand to prepare concrete. This grading method can further increase the density of concrete and improve its strength and durability. Therefore, three-gradation is widely used in some high-strength and high-durability projects.
Mixed gradation
Mixed gradation refers to the mixing of natural sand and gravel of different particle sizes and artificially graded machine-made sand. The mixed-graded machine-made sand has better permeability and bearing capacity, and can also improve the strength and stability of the structure. Therefore, this method is widely used in some special projects, such as hydraulic structures, airport runways and other projects with extremely high strength and stability requirements.
Take double-gradation and three-gradation as examples. Although both can significantly improve the strength and durability of concrete, they will also increase the brittleness of concrete to a certain extent. Therefore, in the specific machine-made sand production process, it is necessary to select appropriate production processes and grading methods according to the specific construction project requirements and concrete performance requirements to achieve the best engineering effect. At the same time, it is also necessary to strengthen the quality control and management of the machine-made sand production process to ensure that its quality and stability meet the construction requirements.
Reasonable grading standard recommendations
Commonly used machine-made sand grading standards include: Chinese standard, European standard, American standard and Japanese standard, etc. In order to meet the requirements of machine-made sand in different fields, different grading standards are recommended. For example, machine-made sand in the fields of construction, bridges, roads, etc. can adopt European standards or American standards; for high-quality machine-made sand required for the manufacture of high-quality concrete, which has special needs, the more stringent particle size distribution requirements of European standards can be adopted; for some low-quality construction fields, Chinese standard can be adopted to meet basic waterproofing and anti-seepage requirements.
In addition, in the preparation of high-strength concrete, the amount of machine-made sand should be controlled within an appropriate range. Generally speaking, the amount of machine-made sand should be controlled between 20%-30% of the total mix. If the amount is too much, the strength of the concrete will be lower than the design requirements, and if the amount is too little, the working performance of the concrete will be poor, easy to crack and easy to deform.
