a) [20 points] You are given the sieve analysis and plasticity results for two soils in the following table. Classify the two soils according the USCS. If you need to plot grain size distribution curves, use the attached sheet. Briefly show the steps you followed to come up with the classification and provide the USCS symbol and name of the soil type. (10 pts each soil - 7 pts symbol and 3 pts the name) b) [10 points] What is the percent gravel and percent sand for soils A and B?
