CHAPTER Two 2-3. An undisturbed chunk of soil has a wet weight of 62 lb and a volume of o.s6 ft. When dried out in an oven, the soil weighs S0 Ib. If the specific gravity o solids is found to be 2.64, determine the water con- tent, wet unit weight of soil, dry unit soil. 2-13. The wet unit weight of a soil sample is 18.55...
A soil has a bulk (total) unit weight of γ = 120 lb/ft3 and water content w = 18%. Take Gs = 2.67. Fill in a completed phase diagram for this soil. Then, calculate: a) void ratio, e; b) porosity, n ; c) degree of saturation, Sr; d) saturated unit weight, γsat (in lb/ft3).
A cylinder soil sample prepared for laboratory testing has a diameter of 70 mm, a height of 143 mm, and weighs 9*10 kN. If the degree of saturation is 90% and specific of gravity of the soil is 2.6, find Void ratio, water content, dry density, porosity, and water content under fully saturated condition.
