Standard Sieve Opening Sizes Plot Data (In) (MM) % Passing Sieve Number Size (MM)

This document provides standard sieve opening sizes in both inches and millimeters. It includes a plot of particle size distribution data showing percentages of material passing through each sieve size. Several calculations are shown including D10, D30, D60 sizes, coefficient of uniformity, coefficient of curvature, and coefficients related to permeability. Graphs illustrate fines, sand, and gravel percentages by weight versus particle diameter.
