Scope*1.1 This practice describes a system for classifying mineraland organo-mineral soils for engineering purposes based onlaboratory determination of particle-size characteristics, liquidlimit, and plasticity index and shall be used when preciseclassification is require

4、d.NOTE 1Use of this standard will result in a single classification groupsymbol and group name except when a soil contains 5 to 12 % fines orwhen the plot of the liquid limit and plasticity index values falls into thecrosshatched area of the plasticity chart. In these two cases, a dual symbolis used

5、, for example, GP-GM, CL-ML. When the laboratory test resultsindicate that the soil is close to another soil classification group, theborderline condition can be indicated with two symbols separated by aslash. The first symbol should be the one based on this standard, forexample, CL/CH, GM/SM, SC/CL

6、. Borderline symbols are particularlyuseful when the liquid limit value of clayey soils is close to 50. These soilscan have expansive characteristics and the use of a borderline symbol(CL/CH, CH/CL) will alert the user of the assigned classifications ofexpansive potential.1.2 The group symbol portio

7、n of this system is based onlaboratory tests performed on the portion of a soil samplepassing the 3-in. (75-mm) sieve (see Specification E11).1.3 As a classification system, this standard is limited tonaturally occurring soils.NOTE 2The group names and symbols used in this test method maybe used as

8、a descriptive system applied to such materials as shale,claystone, shells, crushed rock, etc. See Appendix X2.1.4 This standard is for qualitative application only.NOTE 3When quantitative information is required for detailed de-signs of important structures, this test method must be supplemented byl

9、aboratory tests or other quantitative data to determine performancecharacteristics under expected field conditions.1.5 This standard is the ASTM version of the Unified SoilClassification System. The basis for the classification schemeis the Airfield Classification System developed by A. Casa-grande

10、in the early 1940s.2It became known as the UnifiedSoil Classification System when several U.S. GovernmentAgencies adopted a modified version of the Airfield System in1952.1.6 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility

11、 of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.1.7 This practice offers a set of instructions for performingone or more specific operations. This document cannot replaceeducation or experienc

This ASTM standard is notintended to represent or replace the standard of care by whichthe adequacy of a given professional service must be judged,nor should this do

40、io D60/D10, whereD60and D10are the particle diameters corresponding to 60 and10 % finer on the cumulative particle-size distribution curve,respectively.4. Summary4.1 As illustrated in Table 1, this classification systemidentifies three major soil divisions: coarse-grained soils,fine-grained soils, a

41、nd highly organic soils. These three divi-sions are further subdivided into a total of 15 basic soil groups.4.2 Based on the results of visual observations and pre-scribed laboratory tests, a soil is catalogued according to thebasic soil groups, assigned a group symbol(s) and name, andthereby classi

42、fied. The flow charts, Fig. 1 for fine-grained soils,and Fig. 3 for coarse-grained soils, can be used to assign theappropriate group symbol(s) and name.5. Significance and Use5.1 This standard classifies soils from any geographic loca-tion into categories representing the results of prescribedlabora

43、tory tests to determine the particle-size characteristics,the liquid limit, and the plasticity index.5.2 The assigning of a group name and symbol(s) alongwith the descriptive information required in Practice D 2488can be used to describe a soil to aid in the evaluation of itssignificant properties f

44、or engineering use.5.3 The various groupings of this classification system havebeen devised to correlate in a general way with the engineeringbehavior of soils. This standard provides a useful first step inany field or laboratory investigation for geotechnical engineer-ing purposes.5.4 This standard

45、 may also be used as an aid in trainingpersonnel in the use of Practice D 2488.5.5 This standard may be used in combination with PracticeD 4083 when working with frozen soils.NOTE 5Notwithstanding the statements on precision and bias con-tained in this standard: The precision of this test method is

46、dependent onthe competence of the personnel performing it and the suitability of theequipment and facilities used. Agencies that meet the criteria of PracticeD 3740 are generally considered capable of competent and objectivetesting. Users of this test method are cautioned that compliance withPractic

47、e D 3740 does not in itself assure reliable testing. Reliable testingdepends on several factors; Practice D 3740 provides a means forevaluating some of those factors.6. Apparatus6.1 In addition to the apparatus that may be required forobtaining and preparing the samples and conducting theprescribed

48、laboratory tests, a plasticity chart, similar to Fig. 4,and a cumulative particle-size distribution curve, similar to Fig.5, are required.NOTE 6The “U” line shown on Fig. 4 has been empirically deter-mined to be the approximate “upper limit” for natural soils. It is a goodcheck against erroneous dat

49、a, and any test results that plot above or to theleft of it should be verified.D 2487 0613FIG. 1 Flow Chart for Classifying Fine-Grained Soil (50 % or More Passes No. 200 Sieve)FIG. 2 Flow Chart for Classifying Organic Fine-Grained Soil (50 % or More Passes No. 200 Sieve)D 2487 0614FIG. 3 Flow Chart for Classifying Coarse-Grained Soils (More Than 50 % Retained on No. 200 Sieve)FIG. 4 Plasticity ChartD 2487 06157.
