Classification, Engineering Properties Consolidation Methods Why Do We Classify Soils? From experience and historic data, we know the engineering behavior of most soil types: Strength when wet Strength when loaded Behavior when disturbed (earthquake, vibration) From the historic data and research of our predecessors, soil classification systems have been developed. Therefore, if a soil can be classified accordingly, we can predict its behavior under specific conditions Silt: What is It? Silt is VERY fine sand Produced by the mechanical weathering of rock Grinding by glaciers, sandbl
