Soil classification using the USCS method is determined primarily by soil texture for
coarse-grained soils and soil behavior for fine-grained soils. Learn how to determine soil types here. This is a part of the EMI GeoTech Design Guide Series.

The Dual-Mass dynamic cone penetrometer (DCP) is used to identify soil consistency
/ density and soil behavior (soil type) by dynamically driving a hammer into the
subsurface soils. This is a part of the EMI GeoTech Design Guide Series.

If your soil has a significant percent of fine-grained soils (over 10%), it is often
necessary to “wash” the soil first. The wash sieve test utilizes a larger, reinforced No.
200 sieve to determine the percentage of fine-grained soils and coarse-grained soil. This is a part of the EMI GeoTech Design Guide Series.
The pocket penetrometer and pocket torvane are portable tools that estimate
undrained shear strength of fine-grained / cohesive soils. This is a part of the EMI GeoTech Design Guide Series.

Hand augers are used to quickly identify the subsurface conditions of a project site.
Augers allow for a soil profile characterization free of discontinuities or missed areas
that can occur when using other equipment such as a split spoon sampler, which
produces a sample every 400 to 500mm.This is a part of the EMI GeoTech Design Guide Series.
