Because when all voids fill in the concrete mix then it got more compact and having high strength.

Grade is important because mix proportion is accurate so strength increase.

Otherwise concrete will become HONEYCOMBED.

Grading gives good quality of aggregate because all pores will get filled with different sizes of particles ie. Spaces between coarse aggregate will be filled by sand and the gap between sand particles get filled by cement, resulting in a dense cake of concrete.

The graded aggregate increases the properties of concrete.

Bonding between particles is good.
