Concrete Testing Data Analysis

The document contains test results from a sieve analysis experiment including the mass retained on each sieve size, cumulative mass retained, cumulative percent retained, and percent passing values. It also lists the sieve sizes used in the analysis ranging from 19.0mm to a pan. The results show that 37.84% of the aggregate was retained on the 19.0mm sieve, with 99.06% retained after the 10.0mm sieve, and 100% passing through the 1.18mm sieve and smaller, with the remainder collected in the pan.
