QUESTION
Table 1 below shows the data collected after a mechanical sieving analysis of a soil sample. During the sieving the total mass of sample is m = 340g and the percentage of loss is considered to 0 %.
Table 1: Data collected from the sieve analysis of a sample soil
Sieve number # | Aperture/ diameter (mm) | Mass of retained R (g) |
1 | 5.000 | 14.30 |
2 | 2.000 | 128.80 |
3 | 1.600 | 50.65 |
4 | 0.800 | 97.55 |
5 | 0.400 | 25.44 |
6 | 0.250 | 15.46 |
7 | 0.125 | 4.20 |
8 | 0.100 | 2.14 |
9 | 0.063 | 1.00 |
PAN | 0.46 | |
Total | 340.00 |
– Calculate Φ for each aperture d
– Calculate the percentage of retained (R%) from the sieve 1 to the PAN
– Calculate the cumulative weight (%CW) from the sieve 1 to the PAN
– Draw the corresponding granulometric curve (you can do it by excel or by hand)
– Draw the Histogram of Grain Size Distribution (GSD) (you can do it by excel or by hand)
