the openings in each larger sieve is twice FM variations should be closely monitored. OF FITNESS that of the sieve below. The most Concrete is proportioned using a base MODULUS common sieve sizes for calculating the FM of fine aggregate are No. 4, 8, 16, 30, fineness modulus determined from previous tests or, if no previous tests 50, and 100. The No. 200 sieve is exist, from the average of the FM values By Bruce Suprenant included in a standard sieve analysis, but for the first 10 aggregate samples tested.
