    This document presents the results of a particle size analysis of a soil sample using a U.S. Standard Sieve. It shows the mass of the sample retained on each sieve, the percent weight retained, and calculates the percent of the sample that is gravel, coarse sand, fine sand, and silt. The overall distribution of particles in the sample by size is presented in a bar graph.
