December 18,2000 Page 2 of 2 Comments The
Hutcheson TD "B" sample (Lab ID No.9628-1) was
tested as receive There were small amounts of
silt and clay present, these amounts falling
within the recommended range. The sand fraction
was uniform in particle size, most of the
sand falling into the coarse and medium size
fractions. The uniformity of the sand particle
si is illustrated by the uniformity coefficient
(Cu), this value falling into the optimum ran of
2 to 3 for construction sand. The sand particle
shapes were mixed and acceptable. T pH was
acceptable. In comparing the TO "B" sand with
yolJf existing fields, the match is a reasonable
one. This material is defInitely preferable to
the previous -sample tested (Lab ID
No.9522-2) Please let me know if you have any
questions on these results. Thank you. X

MATERIALS REQUIRED

• THE NUMBER OF SQUARE FEET X THE OF INCHES DEEP
  X .0031 OF CUBIC YARDS
• Thus an application of ¼ inch on a 54,000 square
  foot football field requires 41.85 yards. The
  amount of top dressing required is important in
  estimating how much to order and what it will
  cost. The current trend is for the use of top
  dressing that has large sand content 80 and 20
  organic material.
