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 For a well graded soil, both uniformity coefficient and coefficient of curvature are nearly unity. Uniformity coefficient represents the shape of the particle size distribution curve.
