Challenge Problems
Push your limits with challenges.
Question 1
You have a soil sample with a grading curve. It shows that 90% of the particles pass through a 4.75mm sieve and 10% pass through a 0.075mm sieve. Determine the uniformity coefficient.
💡 Hint: Think about how uniformity relates to particle distribution.
Question 2
In a hypothetical scenario, if soil characteristics indicate that all particles are of the same size, what challenges might arise in construction?
💡 Hint: Consider how different particle sizes work together.
