SSC SSC JE Civil 2025 Mock Test Series (Paper 1 & Paper 2) Soil Mechanics and Foundation Engineering Classification of Soils
In a sieve analysis of soil, the total weight of soil taken was 500 g. The mass of soil retained over 4.75 mm sieve was 100 g, mass retained over 2 mm sieve was 150 g, and the mass retained over 425 -micron sieve was 200 g. The effective size of the soil will be:
1
425 microns
2
4.75 mm
3
2 mm
4
75 microns
