The same fineness modulus can represent a number of different size distributions and grading curves. Therefore, fineness modulus cannot be used as a description of the grading of aggregate. When the use of the fineness modulus in the assessment of variations from the same source or parabolic behavior of a concrete mix is of great help.

gate fineness modulus, proportion-ing aggregates, and choosing a ce-ment-aggregate ratio. The fineness modulus method The most commonly used method for designing mixes for concrete masonry is called the FM method. FM stands for fineness modulus, an index number roughly proportional to the average size of the particles in a given aggregate.

Coarse aggregate is used to describe particles larger than 4.75 mm, and the term fine aggregate is used for particles smaller than 4.75mm. Fine aggregates contain particles in the size range 75 µm to 4.75 mm, and coarse aggregates from 4.75 to about 40 mm, except for mass concrete which may contain particles up to 150 mm.

of coarse aggregate was 0.5% which was within the normal range from0.1 to 0.6%.The fineness modulus obtained suggest that, the aggregates used had an approximately average sizes of 600µm and 12.5mm for fine and coarse aggregates respectively. Thus, the sand used was normal sand since it lies within Zone II of geological grading.
