The sand obtained from a river are generally not suitable formediumfilter application due to its ineffective sizes. Therefore, the modification of this stock sand needs to be done in order to produce the desired filter sand. The sieve analysis of this stock sand was carried out and the results should be shown in your answers. Propose the sizes that should be eliminated during the modification process for a purpose of developing usable filter sand with an effective size and uniformity coefficient of 0.45 mm and 1.6, respectively.

A sand cone test has been performed in a compacted fill performed on a soil sample. The test results were as follows: Initial mass of sand cone apparatus w/ sand -------------- 5.912 kg Final mass of sand cone apparatus w/ sand --------------- 2.378 kg Mass of soil recovered from hole ----------------------------- 2.883 kg Moisture content of soil from hole --------------------------- 7% Density of sand ---------------------------------------------------- 1300 kg/cu.m Volume of cone below valve------------------------------------ 1.114 x10 -3 cu.m Max. dry unit weight ---------------------------------------------- 19KN/cu.m Compute: The moist unit weight The dry unit weight The relative compaction

659, The Lexington Sand and Gravel Company has made a bid to supply sand for Laramie's new sand filter. The request for bids stipulated that the sand have an effective size in the range 0.35 to 0.55 mm and a uniformity coef- ficient in the range 1.3 to 1.7. Lexington supplied the following sieve analysis (sample size = 500.00 g) as evidence that its sand will meet the
