Abstract The article aims to present a comparative study of two methods used to determine the particle size distribution of fine and medium coarse soils. These methods are used to determine the grain size distribution curve in practice; however, for different purposes. The classical sedimentation method, based on the Stoke’s sedimentation law (hydrometer, areometric, the Casagrande’s method), standardized for a geotechnical classification of soils was compared with the laser diffraction method on the Mastersizer 3,000 analyser used for soil science purposes. The first comparison on nine samples showed significant differences, especially for larger fractions above 0.01 mm. All measured values of falls from laser diffraction analysis (LDA) showed higher values of all analysed fractions. It was also interesting to follow the trend between the tests for the preparation of conversion factors. The analysis also outlined the direction for further comparison. For the geotechnical use of the LDA, it will be necessary to take into account the sample preparation and processing before analysis.

Construction Works

The causes of dust air pollution during road construction are viewed. The particulate analysis of dust generated at different cycles of road works executed by the procedure of microscopic analysis of the particle size distribution is done. The proposed algorithm allows to receive more precise classification of mass distribution on diameters, to equip work facilities with efficient dust extraction systems on different stages of road construction works.

Different Types

The effect of milling and subsequent air classification of 3 cultivars of pea (Pisum sativum) on the distribution of trypsin inhibitors, lectins and tannins was studied. Two different milling procedures and two different classifier settings were investigated. Cut points were calculated from particle size distribution curves of the coarse and fine fractions. Proteinaceous antinutritional factors segregated into the fine fractions, the actual resulting values being dependent on the type of milling and the settings of the classifier.
