Following are the results of a field unit weight determination test on a soil with the sand cone method. Calibrated density of Ottawa Sand%3D 1667 kg/m3 Calibrated mass of Ottawa sand to fill the cone%3D 0.117 kg Mass of jar + cone + sand (before use) = 5.99 kg Mass of jar + cone + sand (after use)= 2.81 kg Mass of moist soil from hole= 3.331 kg Moisture content of moist soil= 11.6%
