Explanation:
Fineness modulus of coarse aggregates represents the average size of the particles in the coarse aggregate by an index number. It is calculated by performing sieve analysis with standard sieves. The cumulative percentage retained on each sieve is added and subtracted by 100 gives the value of fine aggregate.

The aggregate should be oven-dried at high temperature before sieving to prevent lump formation of the fine particles due to moisture content, which might clog the fine sieve holes.
