FAQ

What is the Cohesion of Soil?
Cohesion of Soil is the ability of like particles within soil to hold onto each other. It is the shear strength or force that binds together like particles in the structure of a soil. Cohesion of Soil is usually measured using the Kilopascal for Pressure. Note that the value of Cohesion of Soil is always positive.
Can the Cohesion of Soil be negative?
No, the Cohesion of Soil, measured in Pressure cannot be negative.
What unit is used to measure Cohesion of Soil?
Cohesion of Soil is usually measured using the Kilopascal[kPa] for Pressure. Pascal[kPa], Bar[kPa], Pound Per Square Inch[kPa] are the few other units in which Cohesion of Soil can be measured.
