The new gradation through the No. 40		The granulation effect of the lime shall be determined by calculating a new gradation for the entire soil sample for each lime content. This does not change the percent passing the No. 10 and larger sieves. The new gradation through the No. 40, No. 60 and No. 200 sieves shall be calculated as follows:
	~~(425 μm)~~, No. 60 ~~(250 μm)~~ and No. 200 ~~(75 μm)~~ sieves shall be calculated as follows:

	:New gradation = (S x L)/ 100		:New gradation = (S x L)/ 100
