Q: Sands should pass through:
  • A. BIS 480 sieve
  • B. BIS 8 sieve
  • C. BIS 5 sieve
  • D. BIS 6 sieve
Correct Answer: Option A - Aggregate are bound together by means cement. the aggregate classified into two categories, fine and course. The material which passes through BIS test sieve no. 480 is termed as fine aggregate. Usually, the natural river sand is used as a fine aggregate. • Fine sand range:–4.75 mm to 75 μ • BIS 480 sieve represents 4.75 mm sieve opening.
