Question

CREATE A clay sample having its natural moisture content weighs 0.29N.After oven drying drying the weight reduced to 0.22N.prior to oven drying sample was immersed into mercury was found to be 3.24N. G=2.68.Find moisture content,void ratio,degree of saturation and unit weights?​

Answer 1

Answer:

water content (W) = 0.3181

(W)% = 31.81%

Void ratio (e) = 1.9

degree of saturation (S) = 0.4486

(S)% = 44.86%
