Sandstone Raw Value Adjusted*
Schist Percent Retained 1" + 100 0
Non-Spall Argillite Percent Retained 1"-1/2" 0 0
Non-Spall Phyllite Percent Retained 1/2"- #4 0 0
Other Rock Total Retained on #4 100 0
Total Sample Weight *FOR SMALL QUANTITIES NOT TESTED - If fraction is not tested due to
insufficient material, it is assumed to have the same qualities as that fraction above or
below that is tested. Mn/DOT assumes amount above 5% will be tested.
Example Calculations:
Dry Weight of Rock Type
Rock Type % = X 100
Dry Weight of Total Sample
Weighted Avg = (Rock Type % (1"+))(% Retained 1"+) + (Rock Type % (1" - 1/2"))(% Retained 1" - 1/2") + (Rock Type % (1/2" - #4))(% Retained 1/2" - #4)
