You can also post this pdf for a lot more information on how soil scientists (like myself) classify soils in Canada. The US has its own system, but a lot of the principles translate somewhat well (e.g., things they look at, like structure).
Finally, you can find more dirt-nerdery over at !soilscience
the link is !soilscienceI’m unable to comment on the shit just works community for some reason.
some info:
the equilateral triangle (US) one is confusing as fuck, if you’re uninformed. Basically, start with two lines, and see where they take you (e.g., 30% clay, 40% sand). The third line tells you what the remaining percentage of the 3rd textural size is (e.g., in this case, silt).
In the Right angle Triangle (Canadian one) sand and clay to derive your texture. silt is implied (e.g., solve for ‘x’).

Reject modernity. Embrace tradition. (feddit.cl)
