Please explain your terms. Is "wastage' the garbage generated by workers? Aggregate not used? Asphalt not sold? AC spiled on the ground?

Richard A. Cornelius, P.E.
 
Wastage means aggregate wastage. we are having 22-12mm, 12-6mm, 6-3mm, 3-0mm hot bin sizes at the plant. But we always face a problem with the overflow of 6-3 mm from the hot bin. because the consumption of the 6-3mm in the mix is comparatively low. At the same time over size materials also overflows. We tried all possible way to reduce the 6-3 mm in the bin. but not worked. still over flows.

So my question based on this 6-3mm and oversize material wastage.
