FOR SOIL TEST BORING LOGS, REFER TO PLATES B-300 THROUGH B-307. UNIFIED SOIL CLASSIFICATION SYSTEM 5. SOILS ARE CLASSIFIED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE UNIFIED SOIL Q CLASSIFICATION SYSTEM, ASTM D 2487, CLASSIFICATION OF SOILS FOR ❑ Soils are visually classified by the United Soil Classification System (USCS) on the boring logs ENGINEERING PURPOSES. presented in this report. Grain size analysis and Atterberg limits tests are often performed on selected samples to aid In classification. The classification system IS briefly outlined on this chart. 6.
