Scope

1.0.1 This standard is formulated with a view to testing the basic engineering properties
of soil, unifying the test methods, and providing reliable calculation index and parameter for
the highway engineering and construction.
1.0.2 This standard is applicable to basic engineering properties tests of foundation soil,
subgrade soil and other road using soil in highway engineering.
1.0.3 For engineering of all kinds, the reasonable testing program is prepared, the
representative samples are selected, the accurate data are gotten, and the correct analysis and
arrangement of data is conducted. The soil indexes to reflect the actual situation are provided
for engineering and construction.
1.0.4 The analysis and arrangement for soil test material are conducted according to
Annex A, and the overall (soil mass unit) characteristics and change regularity are estimated
by the research on the samples (data gotten in the test).
1.0.5 For soils of different type and gradation, the soil test reports shall state basic
particle gradation, liquid limit and plastic limit indexes of soils; for special soil, it shall also
provide test indexes in indicate the essential characteristic of special soil.
1.0.6 The highway soil tests shall meet the requirements of relevant current national
and professional standards, besides this standard.
