3) For the following aggregate gradation, calculate the total surface
area. Assume the total weight of aggregates as 1200 gm with an
average specific gravity of 2.65. The average size corresponding to each
sieve should be calculated as the mean of sieve in question and the next
larger sieve.

9) Let us say that there are two stockpiles A and B. Stockpile A has 60%
coarse aggregates and Stockpile B has 70% fine aggregates. The
specific gravity of coarse aggregate and fine aggregate of stockpile A and B
