Particle size analyses of typical clays, silty and sandy clays, sands and silts have been used to make an estimate of the probable size characteristics of the average remoulded material to be expected from dredging, and reclamation of adjoining swamp lands. This remoulded material is expected to resemble a fine grained sand, with a small fraction only of clay and silt size particles. Physical properties cannot be predicted with certainty, but will be governed largely by the effectiveness of drainage from the reclaimed areas.
