11 Difference Between Silt and Clay
CivilJungle
MARCH 12, 2021
Both silt and clay are classified as fine-grained soils. It is difficult to mould silty soil into a particular shape because it has less plasticity. The silt particles have a limited ability to retain the plant nutrients in the soil. Clay has good retention of plant nutrients in the soil. What Is Silt?

Piles may also be used where the soil is particularly affected by seasonal changes, to transfer the load below the level of such influence. The load carrying (bearing) capacity of a pile is the sum of the end bearing capacity and the skin friction capacity between the peripheral area of the pile and the surrounding soil.

Although the textural classification of soil is relatively simple, it is based entirely on the particle-size distribution. The amount and type of clay minerals present in fine-grained soils dictate to a great extent their physical properties.
