Hello,
sieve openings % cumulative sieve residue
0.315 0.2
0.315-0.4 1.15
0.4-0.5 10
0.5-0.63 40.8
0.63-0.8 77.1
0.8-1 94.5
1-1.25 99.4
1.25-2 100
I need to plot the grain size distribution curve for this data in Excel and I don't know how to do it anymore.
the x-axis represents the sieve openings (logarithmic scale) and the y-axis represents the % of cumulative sieve residue
thank you for your help

Configuration: Windows / Chrome 69.1.0.3064

    Your "data table" is incomprehensible!
    What is 0.315-0.4 1.15?
    If "0.315-0.4" is in the first column, it's text and cannot be made into a logarithmic scale!
    Why didn't you just attach your Excel file?
     1) Go to https://www.cjoint.com/ 
    2) Click [Browse] to select your file (max 15 MB)
    3) Scroll down to click the blue button [Create Cjoint link]
    4) After a few seconds, the second page will display, with the link in bold; right-click on it and choose "Copy link"
    5) Return to your discussion on CCM, and in your message, paste it.

    Hello,
    If I understood correctly, the representation could look like this:

    Tell me what is not suitable or what you do not understand in my example.

      I saw. What steps prevent you from adapting my example?

    for the sieve diameters, the first value is 0.315 mm and the final one for 100% is greater than 1.25 mm.

      To easily plot the scatter plot, you need to set a value for x. The size of the cells seemed like a practical choice.

    Hello ziani.

    If you don't read our messages, or if you don't understand them, we will never succeed!
    From my very first message #1 at 02:09, I explained to you that
    If "0.315-0.4" is in the first column, it's text and we can't make a logarithmic scale from it!

    My friend tontong took the time to detail for you in his example file #2 how to split your diameter ranges into 2 distinct columns; he confirms to you in his message #8 that we cannot work with the text "0.315-0.4" but only with, on one hand, the number 0.315, and on the other hand, the number 0.4!

    Mr, I read your messages and your responses, it's just that I didn't understand at first why you added the value 02 and don't forget that I'm not proficient in Excel.
    Thank you very much for your help.

      You have the right not to master Excel; we've all been there...
      But you shouldn't start with things as difficult as range abscissas and logarithmic scales!
