A construction project need for an earthfill from a borrow pit's soil. The final soil at construction to be compacted need to achieve dry unit weight of 18.20 kN/m3 and 15 000 m3 volume of compacted fill. If we knew the in situ dry unit weight of the borrow pit soil is 16.18 kN/m3, determined the volume of soil requires to be excavated from borrow pit tp provide necessary volume of compacted fill. (Rounded your answer in m3. Answer only value no unit)

A field density test has been conducted in a compacted fill that is currently under construction.The test results indicate a relative compaction of 101-103%, which made the constructionmanager believe the test must be incorrect. He believes it is impossible for the dry unit weightinthe field to be greater than the maximum dry unit weight from the Proctor compaction test.Explain why the relative compaction in the field could indeedbe greater than 100%.
A fill of volume 150000 cum is to be made of void ratio 0.8. The void ratio of borrow pit soil is 1.4. Find volume to be extracted.
The soil at a borrow area is at moisture content of 8.5%and unit weight of 17.5 kN/m3. This soil is used in the construction of a compacted road base where the dry unitweight is 19.5 kN/m3 and the moisture content is 14.0%. Ifthe finished volume of the road base is 120,000 m3, whatwould be the volume of the soil removed from the borrowpit? How much water would be added to the soil from theborrow pit?
The soil profile shown is to carry a surcharge of 61 kPa applied at the ground surface. The result of the laboratory consolidation test of the middle of the clay layer is also shown. Calculate the settlement in the field caused by primary consolidation due to surcharge. The saturated unit weight of the clay is 18.2 kN/cum with a void ratio of 1.1. Please answer this asap. For upvote. Thank you very much
Q1// A soil sample was taken from a pit and its total unit weight was equal to KN (17.17) and its water content was 12% and the specific gravity of m3 soil particles was (2.7) and then this pit was filled with compacted soil with a water content of 18% and the dry density is equal to (16.19 KN m3 Calculate the following for 1000 m³of fill soil? (yw: KN. = 9.81 m3 A)) The volume of soil to be extracted from the pit in cubic meters. B)) The weight of water that can be added to reach the new water content C)) The ratio of voids to the soil in the pit
The soil at a job site can reach a maximum dry unit weight of 115.3 lb/ft^3. The contractor tests the soil after compaction and it has a dry unit weight of 109.5 lb/ft^3. What is the percent compaction of the soil? Type your answer...

Why does the smooth-drum rollers are not well suited for compacting earth fill?
You have been hired as a project Engineer for a development company in Namugongo to build 610 housing units. Since the original ground is low, you need fill material to raise the ground level. Your estimated fill requirements are 700,000m3 with a void ratio of 0.46. the insitu material at the borrow pit has a void ratio of 0.39 where as the material dumped in trucks has a void ration of 0.71. How many trucks will you need, if each truck carries 10m3? i will need all the work outs in full and well explained
