    Sieve Analysis (4-16 Sand) : % Finer

    Uploaded by

    Shankar Khanal
    This document summarizes the results of a sieve analysis test conducted on a soil sample. The test involved sieving the soil through a series of sieves with decreasing size openings and measuring the mass retained on each sieve. The cumulative percent passing and retained on each sieve was calculated. The fineness modulus of the soil was determined to be 4.7. The surface index, a measure of particle shape, was calculated to be 1.004.
