Unified soil classification is shown in section 5.1 of this book.
Well grained: State of wide range in grain size and substantial amount of all
intermediate particle size
Poor grained: Predominate one size or a range of size with some intermediate
size missing.
When adopting this table, the following should be considered.
(a) Unit weight
In case a soil layer is under ground water, 1.0 should be subtracted from the
unit weight on the table inside.
(c) Internal friction angles and cohesion are approximate value for consolidated
unconfined strength
(Source: design guideline of Japanese express way, and modified by JICA
TCP 2009)

5.5.2 Procedure of Sand Density Method
(2) Fieldwork
Prepare surface for hole. At the location to be tested, all loose soil
shall be removed from the area.
Place plate with 203 mm diameter hole (optional)
Excavate hole, All materials taken from the hole is placed in an air-
tight container for subsequent weighing.
Natural ground is extremely complex and not uniform in its properties, and
cut slopes tend to gradually become unstable after the completion of work.
Therefore, stability calculation is are meaningful only in rare cases when
examining the stability of cut slopes. An overall judgment shall be made by
fully taking into account the requirements for its stability described later by
referring to the standard values of the gradient of slope listed in the Table
next.
The gradients referred to are those for
individual slopes not having berms, as
shown in Figure right.

slopes;

Road of drainage ditches; and
0.5:
A wider berm is recommended where the slope is long and large or where
rock fall protection fences are to be installed.
When drainage structure are not provided, about 5 to 10% of transversal
gradient is normally provided for the berm to drain water towards the toe of
the slope.
When the soil is easily eroded, the gradient of the berm shall be made
toward the ditch of the berm (mountainside).
