D 0.48 Cu ď€ 60 4.36 ; D10 0.11
Cc
D302 ( D60 )( D10 )
0.25 2 1.18 (0.48)(0.11)
Since Cu > 4 and Cc is between 1 and 3, the soil is well graded.
2.2
D Cu ď€ 60 D10
1.1 6.11 ; C 0.18
c
D302 ( D60 )( D10 )
0.41 2 0.727 0.73 (1.1)(0.18)
Although Cu > 6, Cc is not between 1 and 3. The soil is poorly graded.
2.3
The D10, D30, and D60 for soils A, B, and C are obtained from the grain-size distribution curves.
