Sieve analysis consists of shaking the sample through a set of sieves that have progressively smaller openings. To conduct a sieve analysis‚ samples are oven dried for at least 24 hours. The soil is placed and shaken through a stack of sieves with openings of decreasing size from top to bottom. The mass of particles retained in each sieve is determined. Results showed that the particle–size distribution curve of coarse
