A percent finer sieve graph, also known as a cumulative frequency curve, is a graphical representation of the distribution of particle sizes in a sample. It is commonly used in soil science, engineering, and other fields to analyze the particle size distribution of materials. In Excel, you can create a percent finer sieve graph by following these steps:
To begin, you will need to input particle data into the Excel spreadsheet, set up the axes, and calculate the cumulative frequency of the particle size distribution. After this initial setup, customize the graph and format the axes labels and titles to enhance clarity and readability.
