Is it 1<= cc<= 3 or 1<cc<3? Please explain.

For single grained soil cu & cc =1.
Well graded soil cu= 5 & 1<cc<3.
Uniform Soil cu<3.
cc is curvature coefficient.
cu is uniformity coefficient.

The coefficient of curvature is the ratio (D30) 2/ (D10. D60) , where D60, D30, and D10 are the particle diameters corresponding to 60, 30 and 10% finer on the cumulative particle-size distribution curve, respectively.

What is meant by the coefficient of curvature? Please explain me.

It should be greater than 4 for well graded soil.

Avinash said:   7 years ago
What is for uniformly graded soils?

Sunil said:   8 years ago
Option B is right 1<c<3.
