Index Properties of Soil
Index properties are those properties which are not of prime importance for the geotechnical engineers but are indicative to the engineering properties of soil such as bearing capacity, shear strength, permeability, slope stability, compressibility properties and so on.

Relative Density/Density Index
It is a ratio of difference between maximum void ratio and natural void ratio to the difference between maximum void ratio and minimum void ratio expressed in percentage.
