A sample of soil compacted according to the standard Proct or test has a density of 2.06 g/cm³ at 100% compaction and at an optimum water content of 14%. What is the dry unit weight? What is the dry unit weight at zero air-voids? If the voids become filled with water what would be the saturated unit weight? Assume Gs = 2.67 Air Water Solids Ma + + M, M *+ Ww
