Column A (120) = 0 material
•
Column B (170) = 0 material
•
Column C (240) = 5% of 240 equals 12
•
Column D (340) = 90% of 340 equals 306
•
Column E (400>) = 5% of 400 equals 20

Figure 7 - Based on column headings and percent
in each field, calculate overall SGN of the sample.
Using the above crush strength example of 3.5 and average SGN size of 338, we can now use the chart to
determine our maximum spread width. In this case a maximum spinner speed of 650-700 RPM will produce a
spread width of 85’ to 100’ depending on spinner height.
