Uniformity coefficient of a soil is [HED-19]
equal to or greater than 1
equal to 1
equal to or less than 1
none of these
ব্যাখ্যা: ব্যাখ্যা: The uniformity coefficient (cu) is defined as the ratio of D60 10 Dio A value of cu greater than 4 to 6 classific the soil as well graded. When cu is less than 4, it is classified as poorly graded or uniformly graded soil. Uniformly graded soil has identical particles with CU value approximately equal to 1.
