Soil classification and characteristics

Soil classification is a method of categorizing soil based on its properties, types, and uses. The motive of soil classification is to arrange various types of soils and divide them into groups for various engineering and agricultural purposes. Soil classification is carried out by various agencies as per their purposes. From an engineering perspective, soil classification is done to find out the suitability of soil for various construction purposes like the construction of dams, foundations, highways, infrastructures, and so on. For engineering purposes, the soil is classified by the following systems:

A. Answer in True or False 1. A soil has a Cu =1, then it is considered as a poorly graded soil. 2. A soil has L.L360% and P.L-35%, then it plots a point below the A-line in the plasticity chart. 3. A soil described with a symbol (SP) has % passing No. 200 sieve more than 50%. 4. Decreasing water content below shrinkage limit is accompanied with a decreasing in void ratio. 5. Water molecules are considered polar and known as dipoles. 6. Dry Density is the smallest density. 7. Capillary rise is directly proportional to the pore channel diameter. 8. The unconfined compressive strength is twice the undrained cohesion. 9. Piping or boiling occurs when effective stress equals to zero. 10. It is assumed that the secondary compression begins when the primary consolidation ends.
