I have the next code, but I want that the vertical line be complete (it's cut off near to horizontal line):

\begin{table} [H] \footnotesize 
\sisetup{output-decimal-marker = {,}}

\centering
\caption{Massas e percentuais das frações separadas.}

\label{peneiramento}
%\begin{threeparttable}[b]
\begin{tabular}{S[input-symbols = {>},table-format=>2.3]
                S[table-format=4]
                S[table-format=2.1]|
                S[table-format=2]
                S[table-format=2.2,separate-uncertainty=true,table-figures-uncertainty=1]
                S[table-format=1.3,separate-uncertainty=true,table-figures-uncertainty=1]}

\toprule 
\multicolumn{3}{c|}{\makecell[tc]{Peneiramento}} & \multicolumn{3}{c}{\makecell[tc]{Elutriação}} \\
\midrule
{\makecell[tc]{Abertura \\ da peneira \\($\mu m$)}} & {\makecell[tc]{Fração \\ mássica \\ ($g$)}} & {\makecell[tc]{\% \\ massa }} & {\makecell[tc]{Velocidade \\ separação  \\ ($m/s$)}} & {\makecell[tc]{Fração \\ mássica \\ ($g$)}} & {\makecell[tc]{$\%$ \\ massa }}  
\\

    The rules from the booktabs package (\toprule, \midrule, \bottomrule, etc.) cut the vertical line by design. The booktabs package explicitly says that you should never use vertical rules in tables. If you want them, though, then you need to use other rule commands, like \hline. – Phelype Oleinik Jul 30 '18 at 18:53

    ...then you're doing it wrong. Since you're using booktabs, you should also read the documentation. It suggests "Never, ever use vertical rules" (section 2 The layout of formal tables). – Werner Jul 30 '18 at 18:54

    Maybe the table can be split into two tables with horizontal space between them instead of a vertical line. – Heiko Oberdiek Jul 30 '18 at 19:09

The table does not require vertical line between columns 3 and 4. Just be more deliberate in the way you structure the header material, say, by providing two separate \cmidrule statements.

  • This is a good answer for this particular problem, but is it possible to have a continuous line in tables generally? What about the cases where it might be justified? – gnucchi Jul 30 '18 at 19:51
  • (I’m thinking e.g. crosstabs) – gnucchi Jul 30 '18 at 20:05
  • @svenper - See @Bernard's parallel answer for a solution that features a long vertical line of some sort or other; speaking for myself, I'm not convinced that this table absolutely, positively requires any vertical lines. I agree with the author of the booktabs package on the following: If a tableau can't live without vertical lines, one is doing something wrong. BTW, your crosstabs "counterexample" is no counterexample at all: A contingency table can be designed just fine without vertical lines -- and be made more readable in the process. :-) – Mico Jul 30 '18 at 20:08

Vertical lines are not necessarily a bad idea, if used judiciously, but if you want them to intersect the horizontal lines, you have to neutralise the padding that booktabs adds around rules, and replace it with ‘cell gapes’ defined by makecell. This is done in the first code below.

However, I also propose another code, with a thick vertical grey rule between columns; which looks nicer from my point of view.
