Details13.2.4 Aggregate Handling And Storage Piles 13.2.4.1 General Inherent in operations that use minerals in aggregate form is the maintenance of outdoor storage piles. Storage piles are usually left uncovered, partially because of the need for frequent material transfer into or out of storage.
DetailsAt a ready mixed concrete plant aggregates are typically stored in a bin or a stockpile. The process of taking a sample of aggregate that is truly representative of the nature and condition of the aggregate in the stockpile, bin or transfer point is called aggregate sampling. ASTM D75 is the standard practice for sampling aggregates.
