Silt Factor

The document contains results from several soil tests including moisture content tests at different depths, sieve analysis showing the distribution of particle sizes, standard penetration tests to determine soil strength, and the results of a consolidation test measuring soil compression. It provides data on weight, moisture content, particle size distribution and penetration resistance that can be used to characterize the engineering properties of the soil.
