What will I learn?
The Soil Granulometry Course equips you with hands-on skills to plan tests, carry out sieve and hydrometer analyses, and interpret grain-size curves confidently. You will learn the USCS and USDA systems, calculate D-values, Cu, and Cc, and connect results to permeability, erosion risk, stability, and foundation performance. Additionally, you will practise quality control, reporting, and writing straightforward recommendations for actual projects.
Elevify advantages
Develop skills
- Design soil granulometry test plans: quick, field-applicable, and based on standards.
- Classify soils using USCS: connect grain size to strength, drainage, and risks.
- Plot and interpret grain-size curves: D-values, Cu, Cc, grading, and behaviour.
- Prepare and check sieve-hydrometer datasets: realistic, consistent, and ready for reports.
- Convert lab results into clear reports: with QC notes, origin, erosion, and foundation risks.

Your classes are perfect. I got the one-year package and finally have the chance to follow several topics I'm interested in without having to switch platforms... I appreciate everything you do, I've already recommended you to others...
