Ch1-Soil Definition & Formation

The document is the first chapter of a soil mechanics textbook. It defines soil, discussing its composition of particles smaller than 2mm resulting from weathering of rock and organic matter. Soil types are classified based on particle size and include gravel, sand, silt, and clay. The chapter also examines the formation of soil through geological processes and environmental factors.
