CM 3503 Module 2 Phase Diagram Given a soil that has a moist unit weight of 113.8 pcf, the moisture content of the soil is 22.4 %, and the specific gravity of the soil is 2.71; fill in all blanks on the phase diagram. Additionally, you are required to determine the dry unit weight (γd), saturated unit weight (γsat), porosity (η), void ratio (e), and degree of saturation. Fill in the blanks for items A-G. You may print this diagram out and write your answers or enter them in a list below. For either method, you must submit your work as a PDF. Phase Diagrams A: total weight: 113.8 B: weight of water: 20.83 lbs. C: weight of solids: 92.971 lbs. D: volume of air: 0.117 ft^3 E: water: 0.333 ft^3 F: solids: 0.55 ft^3 G: volume of voids: 0.45 ft^2 Dry weight (yd): 93 pcf Saturated unit weight (ysat): 121.1 pcf Porosity (n): 45% Void ratio (e): 0.818 Degree of saturation: 74.2% SEE BELOW FOR WORK SHOWN:
