Swarms of dolerite dykes riddle the Tapi–Narmada valleys (Fig 103)The swarms comprise parallel dykes oriented ENE–WSW (Auden, 1949)In the Nandurbar–Dhule tract, individual dykes are as long as 79 km, and their thickness varies from 3 to 62 m (Ray, Sheth, & Mallik, 2007)The average width of the dykes of the two belts is 15 mThere are 20–25 dykes/km in the Narmada–Tapi–Satpura

Aggregates Portland Cement Association
Grading limits and maximum aggregate size are specified because these properties affect the amount of aggregate used as well as cement and water requirements, workability, pumpability, and durability of concrete In general, if the watercement ratio is chosen correctly, a wide range in grading can be used without a major effect on strength
