Lecture

Soil Identification and Classification

Description

This lecture covers the identification and classification of soils, including basic tests such as particle size analysis, consistency limits, and organic matter content. It also explains the granulometric analysis, the use of different standards, and the determination of soil characteristics. Students will learn about the importance of representative soil samples, the process of sieving, and the classification of soils based on grain size. The lecture also delves into the significance of granulometric curves, characteristic diameters, and the calculation of uniformity and curvature to characterize soil granulometry.
