Silt Content Test for Sand

Apparatus required
250 ml measuring cylinder
Water
Sand sample & Tray
Test Procedure
First, we have to fill the measuring cylinder with 1% solution of salt and water up to 50 ml.
Add sand to it until the level reaches 100 ml. Then fill the solution up to 150 ml level.
Cover the cylinder and shake it well (as shown in video)
After 3 hours, the silt content settled down over the sand layer
Now note down the silt layer alone volume as V1 ml (settled over the sand)
Then note down the sand volume (below the silt) as V2 ml
Repeat the procedure two more times to get the average
Silt Content Formula = (V1/V2)*100
The permissible Silt content in sand percentage is only 8%.
Quantity of Silt in Sand
The strength and durability of concrete are impacted if there is a high silt content in the sand. This is why it’s extremely important to test the sand for silt. Watch our video to find out how to measure the silt content in the sand.
