Introduction Sieve analysis is always used to determine the grain size distribution of soils Mechanical Sieves Sieves is a device used for separating wanted elements from unwanted material or for defining the particle size distribution of a sample typically using a woven screen such as mesh or net or metal Please make note that there are different sizes of sieves The sample dry soil is placed in the top of the sieve stack and carefully covers it with lid Shake the stack of sieves for about 5 minutes After shaking weigh the sample retained on each sieves including the weight retained in the pan Standards ASTM Standard C136 C136M Unified standard Purpose The fundamental objective is to determine how many types or size of soil The Standard grain size analysis test determines the relative proportions of different grain sizes as they are distributed among certain size ranges
