A 6 in diameter exploratory boring has been drilled through a fine sand to a depth of 19 ft. An SPT N-value of 23 was obtained at this depth using a USA safety hammer with a stan-dard sampler. The boring then continued to greater depths, eventually encountering the groundwater table at a depth of 35 ft. The unit weight of the sand is unknown. ComputeN1,60, f′, and Dr at the test location, and use this data to classify the consistency of thesand.
