Outline of series of preliminary tests made on compressibility of mixtures of dune sand and white mica (grain size, 0.417 to 0.589 mm.), at lateral confinement; test data furnished curves of voids ratio against intensity of pressure for each of samples of varying mica content; it is found that compressibility characteristics of any given fine-grained soil may be reproduced on microscopic scale by selecting proper mixture of sand and mica. (See also - no. 2, Feb. 1928, pp. 555-568, 4 figs)
