It is based on particle-size distrlbution and AI emits, such as liquid limit and plasticity index. This classification system is covered in AASHTO Standard No. M 145-82. The classification is based on that portion of the soil that is smaller then 3 inches in dame The AASHTO classification system has two general classifications: (I) granular matenals having 35 percent or less, by weight, particles smaller than 0.074 mm in diameter and (ii) silt-clay materials having more percent, by weight, particles smaller than 0.074 mm in diameter. These two divisions are further subdivided into seven main group classifications, plus eight subgroups, fora total of fifteen for mineral soils. Ano for organic sods is used. For each sod horizon in the database one or more AASHTO Group Classifications may be listed. One as marked as the representative or most commonly occumng.
