Difference between Clay and Soil classification

Clay vs. Soil classification

Clay is a finely-grained natural rock or soil material that combines one or more clay minerals with possible traces of quartz (SiO2), metal oxides (Al2O3, MgO etc.) and organic matter. Soil classification deals with the systematic categorization of soils based on distinguishing characteristics as well as criteria that dictate choices in use.

Similarities between Clay and Soil classification

Clay and Soil classification have 3 things in common (in Unionpedia): Atterberg limits, Geotechnical engineering, Soil.

Atterberg limits

The Atterberg limits are a basic measure of the critical water contents of a fine-grained soil: its shrinkage limit, plastic limit, and liquid limit.
