Sieves are critical tools in a soil testing laboratory, primarily used for sieve analysis—a process that determines the particle size distribution of soil samples. This helps classify soil types and assess their suitability for construction and engineering purposes. Common Sieves Used in Soil Labs: Coarse Sieves: 75 mm 63 mm 37.5 mm 19 mm 4.75 mm Fine Sieves: 2.36 mm 1.18 mm 600 μm 425 μm 300 μm 150 μm 75 μm Key Features: Made of stainless steel or brass for durability. Come in various diameters (typically 8" or 12"). Conform to ASTM or BS standards. Used with a sieve shaker or manually for grading analysis. Sieving helps identify soil texture and behavior, crucial for foundation design, compaction, and permeability studies.
