The Geotechnical Engineers/Agencies had evolved many soil classification systems, over the world. The soil classification system developed by Casegrande was subsequently modified and named as 'Unified Classification’ system. In 1959, Bureau of Indian Standards adopted, the Unified classification system as a standard, which was revised in 1970.
