BS EN ISO 14688-1:2018 specifies the rules for the identification and description of soils and is intended to
be read in conjunction with ISO 14688-2, which outlines the basis of classification of those material
characteristics most commonly used for soils for engineering purposes. The relevant characteristics
could vary and therefore, for particular projects or materials, more detailed subdivisions of the
descriptive and classification terms could be appropriate.
This document specifies procedures for the identification and description of soils based on a flexible
system for use by experienced persons, covering both material and mass characteristics by visual
and manual techniques. Details are given of the individual characteristics for identifying soils and the
descriptive terms in regular use, including those related to the results of hand tests carried out in the
field as part of the descriptive process.
This document is applicable to the description of soils for engineering purposes which can be those laid
by natural processes, those laid by man or comprise synthetic materials.
