I am interested in finding typical values for the damping ratio for different types of soils, such as:
Soft clay
Firm clay
Stiff clay
Sand
Gravel
Many thanks for help in advance.
Please find enclosed some interesting PDFs...

Cheers!
Please find the link below, in which the damping ratios of some railway track-bed soils are provided.
