- To use river sand as filling materials for changing the grade or elevation of real property (i.e. road or rail network, embankment, low land for construction etc.) is a common practice in Bangladesh. The main sources of the fillers are the big rivers of Bangladesh which are Padma, Meghna and Jamuna. In this study 3 sets of soil samples with 3 samples in each set (total 9 soil samples) were collected from Shitalakshya riverbank. To represent the river sand three major rivers of Bangladesh and they are the Padma, the Meghna and the Jamuna. The prime aim of this study was to determine the important properties of collected sands and make a representative correlation among them. The regression analysis result between angle of internal friction and fineness modulus for Padma and Jamuna river sands are rationally representative but the correlation between angle of internal friction with mean particle size and specific gravity did not develop any explanatory outcome. The regression analysis results indicate a representative correlation between specific gravity and fineness modulus. Whereas analysis result for specific gravity and mean particle size did not show any representative correlation. In case of fineness modulus and mean particle size no productive results have been generated.
