Sieve Analysis: Determination of Aggregate Particle Size (Is: 2386: 1963 - Part 1)

This document summarizes the results of a sieve analysis test conducted on an M sand sample weighing 1000 grams. The sample was sieved through a series of sieves with mesh sizes ranging from 40mm to 150 microns. The weight of material retained on each sieve was recorded and the percentage passing and cumulative percentage passing were calculated and compared to specified limits. The test was conducted on May 30th, 2014 at the Ozone plant to determine the particle size distribution of the aggregate sample.
