L'analyse granulométrique d’un sol [...] consiste à tamiser le sol à l'aide de tamis ou de passoires dont chacun retient les éléments ayant une certaine grosseur, et à peser le reliquat de tamisage de chaque tamis(ou passoire) ;on rapporte ensuite ce poids au poids total de sol tamisé. Les résultats sont inscrits sur une courbe appelée «courbe granulométrique» sur laquelle on porte en abscisses les dimensions des trous du tamis(ou de la passoire) suivant une échelle logarithmique, et en ordonnées, les valeurs des pourcentages de sols passant sur ces tamis. 5, record 2, French, - courbe%20granulom%C3%A9trique
