Transcribed Image Text:GEOTECHNICAL ENGINEERING
In a specific gravity test, the data below were collected Determine the specific gravity of soil
solids. If accidentally, 5 cm^3 of air got entrapped while determining the weight of pycnometer,
soil and partial water, what is the corrected value of specific gravity of soil solids
Weight of Saturated oven-dried soil = 2 88 N
Weight of soil + partial water + pycnometer = 777 N
Weight of pycnometer full of water = 6.39 N
Density of Water = 998 kg/m^3
1. INPUT THE VALUE OF SPECIFIC GRAVITY OF SOIL SOLIDS IN 2 DECIMAL PLACES
2 INPUT THE VALUE OF CORRECTED SPECIFIC GRAVITY OF SOIL SOLIDS IN 2 DECIMAL
