Question 9
Soil placed on a can has been weighed before and after an oven-drying procedure. The procedure yields the following results:
84.4 g.
Mass of soil + can before placing in the oven
74 g.
Mass of soil + can after placing in the oven
Mass of can
33.7 g.
If the specific gravity of the soil is 2.82, and the void ratio is 0.567, what will be the moist unit weight (kN/m3) of the soil?
Round off to two decimal places.
