Description

Sand/Silt/Clay.

This is a physical property test. This method quantitatively determines the physical proportions of three sizes of primary soil particles as determined by their settling rates in an aqueous solution using a hydrometer. These portions are used to determine the soil type. The method has a detection limit of 2.0% sand, silt and clay and is generally reproducible to within ± 8%.
