1. Air-dry soil or oven-dry at not more than 50 0C. Bring the soil to a
condition at which it can be crumbled.
2. Weigh air or oven-dried material. Determine moisture content

if required.
3. Break down aggregations of particles (rubber pestle) - Do NOT

break individual particles.
4. Sieve on 2 mm sieve. Material retained to be individual particles only.
5. Riffle to obtain representative sample. Determine riffle factor by weighing.
6. Sieve on 425 mm.
7. Weigh retained soil Calculate % retained if required.
8. Mix with distilled water.
9. Seal and store for 24 hours.
