So does anyone have a table about values of K used in the equation for calculating the diameter of particles in hydrometer analysis that has Gs (soil specific gravity) lower than 2. All I can found the table start from 2.45. But my Gs is around 1.8 so I need a table that lower than 2.45
Can anyone help me, which book I can find the complete table?
