The most common method used for soil texture determination involves soil texture triangle to distinguish the textural classes. The classification depends on the amount of percent sand, silt, and clay in a given sample. Soil texture plays an important role in retention of soil moisture as clay ...
You can't add twice the new triangle definition, at least not when using TT.add(). But you can either use soiltexture::TT.set( "HYPRES2.TT" = hypres ) to overwrite the previous definition, or reset the package-parameters before using TT.add() again. The parameters can be reset by ...

There are up to 31 different soil types, each consisting of different proportions of sand, silt and clay. For each field, you can view the current soil type, the definition of all soil types and their composition in the field menu using the soil texture triangle, which isalso used in rea...
Figure 1. Soil textural triangle. Texture is an important property when evaluating the wastewater renovation potential of soil. Basic assumptions can be made as to the hydraulic and chemical properties by knowing the texture. It is assumed that a soil that is dominated by sand-sized particles wil...
