The smallest sieve opening through which the entire amount of aggregate is permitted to pass is called the nominal maximum size For example, for the aggregate meeting the specification limits shown below would have a maximum size of 375 mm 1-1/2 in and a nominal maximum size of 250 mm 1 in...
By the CT 382 definition, the maximum aggregate size is 3/4 and the nominal maximum aggregate size is 1/2 In the November 2011 version of CT 202, nominal maximum aggregate size is defined as one sieve size larger than the first size to retain more than 10 By this definition the nominal maximum aggregate size for the material example above is also 1/2 However, if there were only 91 passing ,...
The nominal maximum size of aggregate that may be used should not be larger than one-fifth the narrowest dimension between the sides of the form nor larger than three-fourths the minimum clear spacing between the reinforcing bars ACI 2111, ACI 318 In concrete slabs, the nominal maximum size should not be larger than one-third of the slab thickness ACI 3021R Always use the largest nominal ,...
Therefore, the total nominal mixes shall be 12 for 10, 20 40 mm maximum size of coarse aggregate Thus, it could be seen that nominal mixes cannot have a fix conventional proportions such as 1 2 4 or 1 15 3, but may vary according to maximum size of coarse aggregate and grading of fine aggregate...
Where the reinforcement is widely spaced as in solid slabs, limitations of the size of the aggregate may not be so important and the nominal maximum size may sometime be as great as or greater than the maximum cover except where porous aggregate are used For reinforced concrete work aggregates having a maximum size of 20 mm are generally considered satisfactory...

In this post I shall discuss maximum aggregate size that can be used in design Large maximum sizes of aggregates produce less voids than smaller siz...
Maximum Size versus Nominal Maximum Size The specification I prepared for a project calls for Maximum coarse aggregate size to be 1 in nominal I intended t...
