Cohesive and non cohesive soils
Cohesion is the property of holding the soil particles together. The soils which have the properties of holding the soil particles together are called cohesive soils. Cohesion is used for shear strength of soil when tested with no lateral load applied to the soil sample. The soils which have not properties of holding the soil particles together are termed as cohesiveness soils. Cohesion is zero in case of dry soil.
