Abstract

Laboratory evaluation has been done , for raw data results of test and analysis for fine soil( filling materials) which it using in core construction dam, also to coarse soil (cover soil) for the same dam , according to International (American, British) & Iraqi  standers.


The treatment for fail raw data results are done, with blending many times  river sand washing &cleaning, passing sieve (2) mm by using fineness equations (1,2) as, (25%) sand and (75%) fine soil, which it be concerned with American standard (fig. A, for filling materials), also blending many times river sand (15%) with (85%) coarse soil, it become concerned with American standard (Fig. B, for coarse soil) , anthers properties , concerned with world standards.
