Formats of Soils

1. The document describes procedures for testing soil properties including grain size analysis, proctor compaction tests, and calibration of sand for field density tests. 2. The grain size analysis determines the percentages of gravel, sand, silt, and clay in a soil sample. 3. The proctor compaction test is conducted to determine the maximum dry density and optimum moisture content of a soil by compacting it at different moisture levels. 4. Calibration of sand for field density tests involves determining the weight of sand in a cylinder that will be used for field density testing.
