4 213_BORING_CLASS1 234 GINT.GPJ SWNEW.GDT 1/3/13 Shannon & Wilson, Inc. (S&W), uses a soil identification system modified from the Unified Soil Classification System (USCS). Elements of the USCS and other definitions are provided on this and the following pages. Soil descriptions are based on visual-manual procedures (ASTM D2488) and laboratory testing procedures (ASTM D2487), if performed. S&W INORGANIC SOIL CONSTITUENT DEFINITIONS CONSTITUENT 2 COARSE-GRAINED FINE-GRAINED SOILS SOILS (% or more fines) 1 (less than % fines) 1 Silt, Lean Clay, Major Elastic Silt, or Sand or Gravel 4 Fat Clay 3 Modifying (Secondary) Precedes major constituent Minor Follows major constituent Dry Moist Wet Hammer: Sampler: N-Value: 3% or more coarse-grained: Sandy or Gravelly 4 15% to 3% coarse-grained: with Sand or with Gravel 4 3% or more total coarse-grained and lesser coarsegrained constituent is 15% or more: with Sand or with Gravel 5 1 All percentages are by weight of total specimen passing a 3-inch sieve. 2 The order of terms is: Modifying Major with Minor. 3 Determined based on behavior. 4 Determined based on which constituent comprises a larger percentage. 5 Whichever is the lesser constituent. MOISTURE CONTENT TERMS Absence of moisture, dusty, dry to the touch Damp but no visible water Visible free water, from below water table More than 12% fine-grained: Silty or Clayey 3 STANDARD PENETRATION TEST (SPT) SPECIFICATIONS 14 pounds with a 3-inch free fall. Rope on 6- to 1-inch-diam. cathead 2-1/4 rope turns, > rpm NOTE: If automatic hammers are used, blow counts shown on boring logs should be adjusted to account for efficiency of hammer. 1 to 3 inches long Shoe I.D. = 1.3 inches Barrel I.D. = 1.5 inches Barrel O.D. = 2 inches 5% to 12% fine-grained: with Silt or with Clay 3 15% or more of a second coarsegrained constituent: with Sand or with Gravel 5 Sum blow counts for second and third 6-inch increments. Refusal: blows for 6 inches or less; 1 blows for inches. NOTE: Penetration resistances (N-values) shown on boring logs are as recorded in the field and have not been corrected for hammer efficiency, overburden, or other factors.

Dual symbols (symbols separated by a hyphen, i.e., SP-SM, Sand with Silt) are used for soils with between 5% and 12% fines or when the liquid limit and plasticity index values plot in the CL-ML area of the plasticity chart. Graphics shown on the logs for these soil types are a combination of the two graphic symbols (e.g., SP and SM). 2. Borderline symbols (symbols separated by a slash, i.e., CL/ML, Lean Clay to Silt; SP-SM/SM, Sand with Silt to Silty Sand) indicate that the soil properties are close to the defining boundary between two groups.
