Sieve Test ( IS 4031, Part 1 1996)
Take 100 gram weight of sample of cement and take it on the standard sieve number 9 (90 micron sieve)
Break down the air lumps which are present in the cement sample.
Sieve the cement sample continuously for 15 minutes.
After that there will be some residue will remain on this you take the weight of that residue of the cement.
