3% and by volume upto 8%, but can anybody tell why the
permissible silt content is 15% for crushed sand.

In the present situation of ban on mining sand from rivers,can we go for formation of earth dam filters viz;Horizantal sand blanket,inclined chimney and filters under rivetment with crushed rock sand of 6mm down size.If so what are the specifications and is there any codal provision for its authentication?
