Challenge Problems
Push your limits with challenges.
Question 1
A soil sample retains 40% on a 1 mm sieve, 30% on a 2 mm sieve, and 20% passes through this sieve. How would you interpret the uniformity coefficient?
💡 Hint: Identify the D values corresponding to the 60% and 10% thresholds.
Question 2
Compare the behavior of soil with a Cu of 10 versus a Cu of 2 in engineering applications. Which is preferable and why?
💡 Hint: Think about how particle size affects soil compaction and support.
