A soil has the liquid limit of 20% and plastic limit of 15%. Then the classification of soil according to IS classification system is CL-ML ML None CI ML-MO
Given Saturated Soil Void Ratio = 0.45 Specific Gravity of Solids = 2.65 Find the wet unit weight O 133.4 lb O 19.4 lb/ft3 O 19.4 lb 133.4 lb/ft3
i need the answer quickly
The ratio of saturated unit weight to dry unit weight of dry unit weight is 1.25. If the specific gravity of solids (Gs) is 2.56, the void ratio of the soil is
If the volume of voids is equal to the volume of solids in a soil mass, than the vaiues of porosity and voids ratio respectively are (a) 1.0 and 0.0 (c) 0.5 and 1.0 (b) 0.0 and 1.0 (d) 1.0 and 0.5
The water content of a 100% saturated soil is 30%, and the specific gravity of solids is 2.50. Required: Determine: a. the void ratio to the nearest thousandth b. the unit weight in lb/ft3, to the nearest tenth
Show solution
Soil is compacted at the construction site, so the void ratio changes (gets denser) from 0.80 to 0.50. Specific gravity of solids is 2.70. **(Vs VT / 1+e) VT = 1 What is the increase in the dry unit weight of the soil?
1. A fine-grained soil has a liquid limit of 300% and a plastic limit of 55%. The natural water content of the soil in the field is 80% and clay content is 60%. a. Determine the plasticity index, the liquidity index b. What is the soil state in the field? c. If this soil were under a concrete slab used as a foundation for a building and water were to seep into it from watering of a lawn, what would you expect to happen to the foundation?
The specific gravity of the soil is 2.62, the void ratio is 0.50, water content is 8.50%. Determine the wet density
