Abstract

Clay is a specific soil variety among much common soils because of the diverselyvariations of physic-chemical and mechanical characteristics of clays. According to the visible and typical characteristics of clays, the cohesiveness and deformation under wet conditions are the conspicuous properties. According to the advanced scientific examinations of the characteristics of clays, there were identified a vast mineralogy and physic- chemical variations towards some specific chemical and mechanical applications of them.
