The results of compaction test in laboratory for two different soils Soil A and Soil B are plotted and yields the following graph. Both the soils are tested for maximum dry density in site at time of collection and test results shows both the soil have same maximum dry density at time of collection.
Which of the following statement(s) is/are correct interpretation about the soils?
1
Plasticity of Soil B is higher than the plasticity of the Soil A.
2
Relative compaction for Soil B is lesser than the Relative compaction for Soil A.
3
Compacting effort for Soil A is greater than the compacting effort for Soil B.
4
Both Soil A and Soil B is likely to have same zero air void line for a particular water content.
