Question

For uniformly graded soil, the coefficient of uniformity is:

A.

One

B.

Seven

C.

Five

D.

Ten

Correct option is A

The coefficient of uniformity (Cu) is defined as:\text{The coefficient of uniformity } (C_u) \text{ is defined as:}
Cu=D60D10C_u = \frac{D_{60}}{D_{10}}
For a uniformly graded soil:\text{For a uniformly graded soil:} Most particles are of nearly the same size\text{Most particles are of nearly the same size}
D60D10D_{60} \approx D_{10}
Therefore,Cu1\text{Therefore,}C_u \approx 1​​​​​​
