Question: For the sieve analysis example problem shown in class, a Hydrometer analysis was performed on the sub sample of 1 1 5 . 1 8

For the sieve analysis example problem shown in class, a Hydrometer analysis was performed on the sub sample of 115.18gr, following AASHTO T88(See calculation procedures attachment below), with the supplied information in the table, obtain the information in bold. Assume a specific gravity of 2.70, calculate the uniformity and curvature coefficients. Present the completed gradation curve (including sieve and hydrometer analysis) and comment on your results.
