3-8 A 1-ft3 of undisturbed soil sample has a dry weight of 107 lbs. The specific gravity of the soil solids is 2.70. Need Vs VT = 1 To solve for Vs = use the following equation Ws=Vs*Gs*yw (solve for Vs) a) Calculate the void ratio of the sample. b) Calculate the porosity of the sample. DC
A soil sample has a bulk unit weight of 17.9 kN/m^3 at a water content of 16.9%. Use Gs=2.57 Determine the porosity. Answer in TWO(2) decimal places. Numerical values only. Don't indicate units here, just on the submitted solution.
1. A dry sand is placed in a container having a volume of 0.0092 cubic centimeter. The dry unit weightof the sample is 0.015 gram. Water is carefully added to the container so as not to disturbed thecondition of the sand. When the container is filled, the combined weight of soil plus water is 0.0182gram.a. Determine the specific gravity of soil particle.b. Determine the dry unit weight of soil.2. If the soil sample has a water content of 11% and a unit weight of 19.67 kN/m3 , determine thepercentage of air in voids and the degree of saturation if the specific gravity of soil solid is 2.75.3. If the soil sample has a specific gravity of 2.71 and a porosity of 0.345, determine the saturated unitweight and the bouyant unit weight.4. A soil sample having a liquidity index of 0.85, a plasticity index of 16.50 and a plastic limit of 11.45.The soil sample has a specicfic gravity of 2.68 and a void ratio of 0.77.a. Compute the degree of saturation.b. Compute the air void ratio.
A soil sample retains 40% and 30% of total soil sample on 4.75 mm and 0.075 mm sieve respectively. It passes 10% when sieved through 0.002 mm sieve. Find the ratio of coefficient of curvature to coefficient of uniformity.
