Numerical on Sieve Size Analysis: Plotting Semi Log Graph: Particle-Size Distribution Curve

[@ogwalemmanuel2140]

You helped me pass my last semester papers. Thanks

[@CuriousCivilEngineer]

Glad I could help. Best of luck ahead.

[@DawaStories]

Thanks alot, u made everything clear

[@suryahhabibi1]

Good work, nice explanation!!

[@memoriesthekela5746]

For sieve number 100 which is 86g percent retained is supposed to be 13.94% sir

Thanks a million

If for a particular soil three samples are tested and three values are given then how you decide the soil type...( Note same soil but three diffeeent test results)

[@CuriousCivilEngineer]

Please look at Indian standard classification of soil. Soil types depends upon their grain sizes. If more than 50% soil is retained on 0.075 mm sieve, then it's a course grain soil. If more than 50% is passing through 0.075 mm sieve then it's a fine grain soil. If it's a course grain soil and more than 50% is passing 4.75 mm sieve then it's a Sand else it's a gravel. Fine grain soil can also be classified based upon plasticity chart. I will make a video about next week.

can someone enlighten me on how did he interpolate the values of D10, D30, and D60?

[@wasimshaikh1665]

Hey hi. You just draw a horizontal line (shown in red) from 10% on Y axis till it meets your curve. Once it meets the curve, you can draw vertical line till it meets X axis. Where ever it meets X axis, that's your value of D10. Same thing you repeat for D30 and D60.
