Unified Soil Classification System group symbol. For example, GW-GM corresponds to "well-graded gravel "with silt"." If the soil has more than 15% by weight retained on a #4 sieve (R > 15%), there is a significant amount of gravel, and the suffix "with gravel" may be added to the group name, but the group symbol does not change. For example, SP-SM could refer to "poorly graded SAND with silt" or "poorly graded SAND with silt and gravel."
