Silt Factor

This document discusses the calculation of weighted mean diameter (dm) and silt factor (Ksf) from soil sample data. The table provides sieve size data from a soil sample with percentages of the sample size retained at each sieve size. The weighted mean diameter and silt factor are calculated from this data, with the weighted mean diameter equal to 0.000 and the average silt factor equal to 2.134.
