What is Field Tests for Soil Identification about?

This document describes tests that can be used to identify different types of soil. It lists 5 tests: 1) a visual and feel test to distinguish sand, silt and clay; 2) a shine test to detect clay; 3) a dilatancy test using shaking to identify silt; 4) a molding test to distinguish clays from sands; and 5) notes that no single test can identify soil type and that impressions from multiple tests should be used.
