A certain saturated sand (S = 100%) has a moisture content of 27.9% and a specific gravity of solids of 2.61. It also has a maximum index void ratio of 0.90 and a minimum index void ratio of 0.33. Compute its relative density and classify its consistency. (Table on the right) Solution: Given the values of mmoisture content, specific gravity and degree of saturation, the void ratio can be estiamted as: e = Thus the relative density is found to be Dr = • According to the table, the soil is classified as %; soil.
