Fineness Modulus - Sieve Analysis - Fine Aggregate - Zone

This document summarizes the results of a sieve analysis test performed on a sample of fine aggregate. The test involved sieving the aggregate through a series of sieves with decreasing size openings and measuring the weight retained on each sieve. The results show that most of the aggregate passed through the 4.75mm and 2.36mm sieves, with a fineness modulus of 4.314. Based on the percentage passing various sieves, the aggregate is classified as Zone 1 according to IS 383 Table 4.
