We used this material to produce soils similar to:
ROSSATO, G., NINIS, N.L. & JARDINE, R.J. (1994) Properties of some
kaolin-based model clay soils. ASTM Geotechnical Testing Journal, Vol.
15, No. 2, June 1992, pp. 166-179.
I will drop grading and other information in the post.
I hope this is of some use.
