Figure 14. Correlation chart (Poppe and others, 2005) showing the relations among phi sizes, diameter in millimeters, size classifications (Wentworth, 1922), and American Society of Testing and Materials (ASTM) and Tyler sieve sizes. Chart also shows the corresponding intermediate diameters, grains per milligram, settling velocities, and threshold velocities for traction.
