Question 64
Listen
Given:
A 0.082-m3 sample of soil weighs 1.445kN. When it is dried out in an oven, it weighs
1.301kN. The specific gravity of solids is found to be 2.65.
Required:
Determine the:
a. water content, to the nearest tenth
b. void ratio, to the nearest thousandth
c. porosity, to the nearest tenth
d. degree of saturation, to the nearest tenth
e. wet unit weight, to the nearest hundredth
f. dry unit weight, to the nearest hundredth
Question 7
Listen
Given:
A fine sand has an in-place unit weight of 17.75kN/m3 and a water content of 5.5%.
The specific gravity of solids is 2.80. Void ratio at densest and loosest conditions are
0.55 and 0.75, respectively.
Required:
Find the relative density, to the nearest tenth.
