Explain the basic requirement of soil classification.
List the various soil classification system.
Soil classification is the arrangement of soils into different groups such that the soils in a particular group have similar characteristics. It is the sort of labelling of Soils with different levels. The major soil classification system are given below:
- Massachusetts institute of Technology system (MIT)
- Texural soil classification system
- Unified soil classification system (USCS)
- Indian soil classification system
- British soil classification system
- AASHTO soil classification system
