Hardpan: A very compact heterogeneous mixture of soil particles ranging from those of silt and clay size to sand, gravel and perhaps boulders and generally exhibiting very high dry strength.

Soil Classes 1-4: Cohesionless sands and gravels which are nonplastic in the wet state and which possess no strength or cohesion between individual mineral particles or rock fragments in the dry state.

Class 1 Dense gravel; Dense well-graded sand and gravel with angular particles.
Class 2 Medium-dense sandy gravel and gravelly sand; Medium-dense to dense well graded sand.
Class 3 Loose to medium dense well-graded sand; Medium dense to dense medium to fine sand.
Class 4 Loose fine sand and loose medium sand with well-rounded particles; Uncompacted sand fill.
