Popis: Soil is regarded as a multi-component, multi-phase (solid, liquid and gaseous) dynamic system. The solid component, especially soil mineral particles, has a significant influence on the properties of soil, including its physical, physical–chemical and physical–mechanical properties. By studying the literature, we know that the majority of studies have explained the influence of mineral particles on the physical and physical–mechanical properties of soil bino–mixtures (sand–silt, sand–clay, coarse sand, etc.) through two-dimensional figures. Obviously, for multi-component soil, these two-dimensional figures are not sufficient and should be improved in order to show the influence of soil particles more comprehensively. Therefore, in this paper, we applied a new model—the triangular nomogram—to describe and analyze the change in the inter-friction angle of soil mixtures under different particle size distributions. Through the obtained result, we found that the triangular nomogram is an effective model that can be used to analyze and simulate the properties of soil mixtures.
