what kind of soil has high load-ability - ANSWER- loose, granular soil

what kind of soil has low load-ability? - ANSWER- compacted (frost), clay, rock

classification for a fine grained soil being a clay or silt is based on what? -
ANSWER- plasticity, not particle size

soil with best engineering properties? - ANSWER- angular, high shear strength,
