Best Answer

The word "grading" refers to the diversity in size of the aggregates. Aggregates that have "good grading" or are "well graded" have the same % of each size stone. The goal is to get the maximum aggregate packing density within a mix that still allows the cement to bond to the aggregates and cure properly, since its the aggregates that give concrete its high compressive strength.
