Soil Mechanics and Foundation Which of the following statements is correct? None of these A soil is said to be well graded if it has most of the particles of about the same size Uniformity coefficient represents the shape of the particle size distribution curve. For a well graded soil, both uniformity coefficient and coefficient of curvature are nearly unity.
