A clay crystal. Smaller than that, a clay molecule.
1. Rock materials that are found in soil are mainly sand, silt and clay.
sand
Shear strength of fine sand is determined by the angularity of the sand particles, the grading of the sand. These two features governs the critical state shear strength parameters of the sand. Density, however, dictates the peak shear strength of the sand. i.e. the denser the sand, the higher the peak shear strength. But the critical shear strength remain the same. The denser the sand, the lower the void ratio. Shear strength of fine sand is determined by the angularity of the sand particles, the grading of the sand.

shear stress at failure?
swamp+sand=clay
mud+sand=clay
Their both the same, really, just two different names for sand with clay in it, however one might have more clay in one (sandy clay) than the other (clayey sand), but only by miniscule amounts.
Clay is soft and sand is like sand water
Yes if the sand is on the clay it can roll even if the sand was not on the clay.The clay can still roll.
loam
Swamp + sand = clay it is really... Mud+sand = clay
sand because, sand ranges in size from .2 cm in diameter to .006 cm in diameter and clay's largest diameter is .0004 cm in diameter.
mortar mix may be used as a strengthen agent for the available soft soils, it will increase shear strength, but in the same time bonding with aggregate will be decrease. it may consider as a soil stabilization method if cement added as 10% by weight of the sand silty clay. it will work good.
Clay is introduced to the sand for the sand to help mantain its shape when forming. and it make the mould hard and to retain the casting the clay is tow types one is active clay and dead clay
