    The document summarizes soil particle size analysis of a 2000 gram soil sample. The sample was sieved using sieves with mesh sizes ranging from 400 mm to 0.075 mm. Approximately 12.5% of the soil was retained on the 4 mm sieve, with smaller percentages retained on successively smaller sieves. The finest particles passed through the 0.075 mm sieve, representing 19.5% of the total sample. The fineness modulus of the soil was calculated to be 4.06.
