Question

Relation between dry unit weight specific gravity and void ratio

Answer 1

Given dry unit weight of soil mass gamma d is equal to 16.5kN by m cubed, specific gravity of solids is equal to 2.7 and degree of saturation as 40 percent. ... So by setting the volume of solids is equal to 1 and the rest as volume of voids that is void ratio is equal to 0.636.
