Test Sieving Methods: Guidelines for Establishing Sieve Analysis Procedures, 6th Edition
This comprehensive manual is an essential guide to conducting accurate and consistent sieve analyses, crucial for determining the particle size distribution of granular materials. These measurements directly impact product quality, performance, and compliance in industries ranging from construction and civil engineering to food processing and pharmaceuticals.
Designed to support both newcomers and experienced professionals, this resource brings together time-tested methods drawn from a broad array of ASTM standards. It serves as both a hands-on instructional tool and a reliable technical reference, ensuring confidence and consistency in your quality control practices.
In addition to complementing ASTM E29 (Particle and Spray Characterization), this manual supports standards developed by more than 20 ASTM technical committees, including A01 (Steel, Stainless Steel and Related Alloys), C09 (Concrete and Concrete Aggregates), D18 (Soil and Rock), D22 (Air Quality), and F08 (Sports Equipment, Playing Surfaces, and Facilities), among others.
