What reading level is Soil Physics Laboratory Manual book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

5 add 2. 0 per cent, 6. 0 g. Of powdered quicklime.
To No. 6 add 3 per cent, 10. 0 g. Of sand.
Mix the clay and lime thoroughly in a soil pan and add just enough water for maximum plasticity. Cover with a glass plate to reduce loss by evaporation. Set aside to let the lime act for at least twenty-four hours.
Make a test of tenacity, as directed in Practice IX.
After making the tenacity test fill the mold, first placing in it a piece of damp cheesecloth to facilitate the removal of the clay. Mak
...e duplicate bricks of each mixture, being careful to com- press each to the same degree. Place the bricks on a cloth in a soil pan and dry in an oven for five hours at 100 C.
Test the strength of each brick by supporting the ends so as to allow just 3 inches between the points of support. Suspend weight bag in the middle of brick and determine the weight necessary to break each by pouring shot into the bag.
Explain the effect of lime.
Why does the sand not have as much effect as lime on the breaking strength ?
