THEORETICAL BACKGROUND
Soils consist of grains such as mineral grains and rock fragments with water
and air in the voids between grains. The water and air contents are changed
by changes due to the conditions and location. Soils can be unsaturated or
perfectly dry (have no water content),or be fully saturated (have no air
content), or be partially saturated (with both air and water present).
Although the size and shape of the granular content rarely changes at a given
point, they can vary considerably from point to point. In the engineering
field, it is important to understand the significance of particle size, shape and
composition, and of a soil's internal structure or fabric to design a strong
foundation of a structure.

METHODOLOGY
Sieve analysis is one of the common methods used to find soil particle size
distribution, where the soil sample is shaken through a set of sieves with
progressively smaller openings. It is expressed as a percentage of the total dry
weight. Based on the experiment that we have done, we used a total of 5 sieves
in a set with the opening of 1000 μm, 850 μm, 600 μm, 500 μm and 250 μm
respectively.
The generated particle size distribution graph which can be obtained from
performing sieve analysis can be used in various ways including finding out
the soil grading as well as percentage content of coarse and fine material in the
soil sample.
