  • 1

    are interested in the basic engineering properties of soils because soils are used extensively in highway construction.

    Highway Engineers

  • 2

    are of significant importance when a highway is to carry high traffic volumes with a large percentage of trucks.

    Soil Properties

  • 3

    are of importance when high embankments are to be constructed and when the soil is to be strengthen and used as intermediate support for the highway pavement.

    Soil Properties

  • 4

    can be defined from the civil engineering point of view as the loose mass of the mineral and organic materials that cover the solid crust of granitic and basaltic rocks of the earth.

    Soil

  • 5

    is mainly formed by weathering and other geologic processes that occur on the surface of the solid rock at or near the surface of the earth.

    Soil

  • 6

    occurs through either physical (mechanical) or chemical means.

    Weathering

  • 7

    is a type of soil that is a mixture of sand, silt, and clay.

    Loam Soil

  • 8

    Composition of Loam Soil:

    Sand, Silt, Clay

  • 9

    40 percent of the soil.

    Sand, Silt

  • 10

    20 percent of the soil.

    Clay

  • 11

    is a type of soil that is made up of fine mineral particles that are larger than clay but smaller than sand.

    Silt Soil

  • 12

    is also known as “Light soil”.

    Sandy Soil

  • 13

    is composed of 35% sand and less than 15% silt and clay.

    Sandy Soil

  • 14

    made up of very fine mineral particles, measuring only 0.002 mm in diameter.

    Clay Soil

  • 15

    Characteristics of Soil:

    Origin, Formation, Grain Size, Shape

  • 16

    Basic engineering properties of soils:

    Phase Relations, Atterberg Limits, Permeability, Shear Strength

  • 17

    Phase Relations:

    Porosity, Void Ratio, Moisture Content, Degree of Saturation, Soil Density

  • 18

    The texture of a soil can be described in terms of its appearance, which depends mainly on the shapes and sizes of the soil particles and their distribution in the soil mass.

    Surface Texture

  • 19

    Two Main Categories of Soil:

    Coarse-Grained Soil, Fine-Grained Soil

  • 20

    are sometimes defined as those with particle sizes greater than 0.05 mm, such as sands and gravel.

    Coarse-Grained Soils

  • 21

    are those with particle sizes less than 0.05 mm, such as silts and clays.

    Fine-Grained Soils

  • 22

    are found in deposits of streams and rivers, have been subjected to extensive wear, and are therefore generally strong.

    Round Particles

  • 23

    have not been subjected to similar action and are usually weak.

    Flat and Flaky Particles

  • 24

    generally have flat and flaky-shaped particles.

    Fine-Grained Soils

  • 25

    generally have round or angular-shaped particles.

    Coarse-Grained Soils

  • 26

    Soils with __ have more resistance to deformation than those with __.

    Angular-Shaped Particles, Round Particles

  • 27

    tend to lock together.

    Angular-Shaped Particles

  • 28

    tend to roll over each other.

    Rounded Particles

  • 29

    問題一覧

  • 1

    are interested in the basic engineering properties of soils because soils are used extensively in highway construction.

    Highway Engineers

  • 2

    are of significant importance when a highway is to carry high traffic volumes with a large percentage of trucks.

    Soil Properties

  • 3

    are of importance when high embankments are to be constructed and when the soil is to be strengthen and used as intermediate support for the highway pavement.

    Soil Properties

  • 4

    can be defined from the civil engineering point of view as the loose mass of the mineral and organic materials that cover the solid crust of granitic and basaltic rocks of the earth.

    Soil

  • 5

    is mainly formed by weathering and other geologic processes that occur on the surface of the solid rock at or near the surface of the earth.

    Soil

  • 6

    occurs through either physical (mechanical) or chemical means.

    Composition of Loam Soil:

    Sand, Silt, Clay

  • 9

    40 percent of the soil.

    Sand, Silt

  • 10

    20 percent of the soil.

    Clay

  • 11

    is a type of soil that is made up of fine mineral particles that are larger than clay but smaller than sand.

    Silt Soil

  • 12

    is also known as “Light soil”.

    Sandy Soil

  • 13

    is composed of 35% sand and less than 15% silt and clay.

    Sandy Soil

  • 14

    made up of very fine mineral particles, measuring only 0.002 mm in diameter.

    Clay Soil

  • 15

    Characteristics of Soil:

    Origin, Formation, Grain Size, Shape

  • 16

    Basic engineering properties of soils:

    Phase Relations, Atterberg Limits, Permeability, Shear Strength

  • 17

    Phase Relations:

    Porosity, Void Ratio, Moisture Content, Degree of Saturation, Soil Density

  • 18

    The texture of a soil can be described in terms of its appearance, which depends mainly on the shapes and sizes of the soil particles and their distribution in the soil mass.

    Surface Texture

  • 19

    Two Main Categories of Soil:

    Coarse-Grained Soil, Fine-Grained Soil

  • 20

    are sometimes defined as those with particle sizes greater than 0.05 mm, such as sands and gravel.

    Coarse-Grained Soils

  • 21

    are those with particle sizes less than 0.05 mm, such as silts and clays.

    Fine-Grained Soils

  • 22

    are found in deposits of streams and rivers, have been subjected to extensive wear, and are therefore generally strong.

    Round Particles

  • 23

    have not been subjected to similar action and are usually weak.

    Flat and Flaky Particles

  • 24

    generally have flat and flaky-shaped particles.

    Fine-Grained Soils

  • 25

    generally have round or angular-shaped particles.

    Coarse-Grained Soils

  • 26

    Soils with __ have more resistance to deformation than those with __.

    Angular-Shaped Particles, Round Particles

  • 27

    tend to lock together.

    Angular-Shaped Particles

  • 28

    tend to roll over each other.

    Rounded Particles

  • 29
