SOLVE FOR PART A, B, & C.

B. Field Density Determination
Volume of hole
= 1900 cc
Weight of dry soil from hole (field) _= 2600 g
Weight of wet soil from hole (field) = 4100 g
Maximum dry density (laboratory) = 1520 kg/m³
Find:
a. Dry density (field) in KN/m³
b. Wet density (field) in KN/m³
c. Relative Compaction (%)
C. Moisture Content Determination
Weight of empty can
Weight of dry soil + can = 25 g
Weight of wet soil + can = 28 g
= 20 g
Find:
Moisture Content (%)

Field Density Determination Volume of hole = 1900 cc Weight of dry soil from hole (field) _= 2600 g Weight of wet soil from hole (field) = 4100 g Maximum dry density (laboratory) = 1520 kg/m³ Find: a. Dry density (field) in KN/m³ b. Wet density (field) in KN/m³ c. Relative Compaction (%) C. Moisture Content Determination Weight of empty can Weight of dry soil + can = 25 g Weight of wet soil + can = 28 g = 20 g Find: Moisture Content (%)
A. Volume of Measure Determination
Weight of empty can = 250 g
Weight of water + can = 2100 g
Weight of can + sand = 3120 g
Find:
a. Volume of Measure Determination
Vol. of Measure = Weight of Water (g)
1 g/cc
b. Density of Sand
Density of sand = Weight of sand (g)
Vol. of Measure (cc)
Transcribed Image Text:A. Volume of Measure Determination Weight of empty can = 250 g Weight of water + can = 2100 g Weight of can + sand = 3120 g Find: a. Volume of Measure Determination Vol. of Measure = Weight of Water (g) 1 g/cc b. Density of Sand Density of sand = Weight of sand (g) Vol. of Measure (cc)
