Soil lab Particle size distribution (Sieve method) In addition to that, calculate the value of D25 and D75 and calculate it in curvature
2. Plot the particle size distribution curve of the soil between P% as Y-axis and particle size (opening size) (mm) as X-axis on a logarithmic scale. Particle Size (mm) 100 10 0.1 0.01 100 90 80 70 40 30 20 10 3. From the curve, find the following: Coefficient of Uniformity (Cu) = D60 / D10 Coefficient of Curvature (C.) = D30 / D10 D60 Passing %
