2. Combined mechanical analysis of a given sample of soil was carried out. The
total weight of soil used in the analysis was 350 g. The sample was divided
into coarser and finer fractions by washing it through a 75 microns sieve The
finer traction was 125 g. The coarser fraction was used for the sieve analysis
and 50 g of the finer fraction was used for the hydrometer analysis. The test
results were as given below:
