Sieve until not more than 0.5% by mass of the total sample passes a given sieve with 1
Sieve analysis helps to determine the particle size distribution of the coarse and fine aggregates.This is done by sieving the aggregates as per IS: 2386 (Part I) – 1963. In this we use different sieves as standardized by the IS code and then pass aggregates through them and thus collect different sized particles left over different sieves.
Scope. 1.1 This test method covers the determination of the particle size distribution of fine and coarse aggregates by sieving. 1.2 Some specifications for aggregates which reference this test method contain grading requirements including both coarse and fine fractions. Instructions are included for sieve analysis of such aggregates.

3). Occasionally inspect the No. 200 (75 µm) sieve for cracks along the seam or holes in the screen, as any imperfections will effect the final wash sieve results. Take care to pour only the water with suspended fines and not the sample itself, since samples with larger size aggregates might damage or clog the fine screen on

Sieve analysis is the method of dividing a sample of aggregates into various fractions each consisting of particles of same size. The sieve analysis is carried out to determine the particle size distribution in a sample of aggregate, which we call Gradation. The aggregate fraction from 4.75 to 75 micron is referred to as fine aggregates.

4.1 Material finer than the 75-μm (No. 200) sieve can be separated from larger particles much more efficiently and completely by wet sieving than through the use of dry sieving. Therefore, when accurate determinations of material finer than 75 μm in fine or coarse aggregate are desired, this test method is used on the sample prior to dry sieving …
grading is determined in accordance with ASTM C 136, "Sieve or Screen Analysis of Fine and Coarse Aggregates." A sample of the aggregate is shaken through a series of wire-cloth sieves with square openings, nested one above the other in order of size, with the sieve having the largest openings on top,
