    This document contains the results of a sieve analysis test on a soil sample. The sample was passed through a series of sieves with decreasing opening sizes, and the mass of material retained on each sieve was recorded. A graph shows the cumulative percent finer results, indicating that about 1.7% of the sample was finer than 0.075 mm.
