INTRODUCTION
This report presents the results of a sieve analysis that was performed on a prepared sample of granular
soil. The laboratory test was performed on 14 September 2015 in the New York City College of
Technology Department of Construction Management and Civil Engineering Technology soils laboratory,
Room 409A. The purpose of the test was to determine the particle distribution, prepare a graph of the
test results, calculate the Effective Size (D10), the Uniformity Coefficient (Cu) and Coefficient of
Curvature (Cc), and to classify the soil sample using the American Association of State Highway and
Transportation Officials (ASHTO), the Unified Soil Classification System (USCS) and the United States
Department of Agriculture (USDA) soil Classification systems.
EQUIPMENT
The laboratory test was performed using the following equipment
–
???
???
???
Note: The test soil was taken from pre-dried laboratory samples; therefore, oven-drying of the material
was not required.
PROCEDURE
Discussion of the testing procedure
SUMMARY OF RESULTS
Summarize the results of the test
DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSION
Discuss the properties and classify the soil in the three classification systems.
Is your sample well-graded, etc?
Discuss sources of error
Would this material be good for use as construction backfill? Why?
