Hello all,
I'm not sure whether is this an appropriate place to ask these questions,
but hope someone in the industry can possibly provide me some info.

1. Where I can purchase soil with high clay content in it? Amount about 3kg, not buying in bulk. Visited few hardware shop and road side gardening shop, they dont sell this kind of soil.

2. Is there any website that I'm able to download site investigation report of some previous projects in Malaysia? Or if anyone here have it share with me via PM.

Thanks in advance!

Nope, using for school work lab testing, tried those road side farm gardening place, they dont have it. Actually, trying to look into those excavated soil from road side project work, normally those they still need it? Have yet to ask those contractor in charge

If you really need soil with high clay content, you may look for it from cement manufacturing companies. Clay is used a lot in cement production and usually these companies have a whole hill to mine clay from.

However, I think they won't layan a request for 3 kg. Perhaps you can email them and try to get them to support you as part of their CSR programme.

Ya dont think they will layan my 3kg request,

ask permission to scoop some will do.
Thank you very much for the information provided.
