To calculate the effective diameter of the particles, we use Equation 1 provided below. To determine the effective diameter of the particles, we needed to have the hydrometer readings and temperature for each time taken, as well as using the Coefficient of temperature adjustment table provided in Appendix 3 and the Hydrometer 152H length readings in Appendix 4. To able to determine the Percent Finer for Hydrometer, we use Equation 2 provided below as well as Equation 3 for the Dry Weight of Soil provided below. For Equation 2, we also need the Specific Gravity correction for percent finer table to be able to solve Equation 2. The Specific Gravity correction for percent finer table is provided in Appendix 5. Furthermore, to determine the total
