Refer to Figure 2. Embankments are generally constructed in several layers that are compacted according to geotechnical specifications.layers that are compacted according to geotechnical specifications. The thickness of eachof each layer is 3ft and should have a dry unit weight of 118 lb/ft3 .. It is known that theThe soil used in the embankment has a wet unit weight of 111 lb/ft3, moisture contentmoisture content of 23%, and Gs = 2.67. Complete the following tasks:(a) Determine the wet weight of the soil required to construct the first layer.(closest to the foundation soil) per foot (ft) of the embankment.b) On the day of construction there was a heavy rain that caused the soil used to reach a nearly saturated condition.used to reach a near saturated condition. Recalculate the wet weightwet weight of soil required to construct the first layer.
Please round to the nearest One (i.e., 1). PLEASE DO NOT USE COMMA(S) ON YOUR ANSWER!!! A proposed embankment fill requires 6900 ft³ of compacted soil. The void ratio of the compacted fill is specified as 0.5. Four borrow pits are available as below, which list the respective void ratios of the soil and the cost per cubic feet for moving the soil to the proposed construction site. Make the necessary calculations to determine the total cost for each pit. Assume the specific gravity of soil solids, Gs to be the same at all pits. 1. Calculate the volume of solid (Vs) = ft³ Borrow Pit A: void ratio= 0.91 and the unit cost = $9 /ft³ 2. Calculate the total cost to pay to Pit A = Borrow Pit B: void ratio = 0.95 and the unit cost = $ 11 /ft³ 3. Calculate the total cost to pay to Pit B = Borrow Pit C: void ratio = 1.05 and the unit cost = $8 /ft³ 4. Calculate the total cost to pay to Pit C = Borrow Pit D: void ratio = 0.65 and the unit cost = $ 10/ft³ 5. Calculate the total cost to pay to Pit…
