11、(No. 50) and the 150-m(No. 100) sieve.4.3 If the fineness modulus varies by more than 0.20 fromthe value assumed in selecting proportions for the mortar, theaggregate shall be rejected unless suitable adjustments aremade in proportions to compensate for the change in grading.NOTE 2For heavy construc
