Phase-Diagram-Of-Soil

An embankment of `1,00,000 m^3` volume has to be constructed by compacting soil brought from excavation site. After compaction, dry unit weight of compacted soil (embankment) will be `16(KN)/M^3`. Also, bulk unit weight and water content of soil at excavation site are `12 (KN)/M^3` and `15%` respectively. Find volume and weight of soil to be excavated from excavation site. Take specific gravity of soil solid as `2.70`. [2073 Magh][5]

This Chapter Phase-Diagram-Of-Soil consists of the following topics

Sandy soil in the borrow pit has unit weights of solids as `25.8 (KN)/M^3`, water content equal to `11%` and bulk unit weight equal to `16.4 (KN)/M^3`. How many cubic meter of compacted fill could be constructed of `3500 M^3` of sand excavated from the borrow pit, if required value of porosity in the compacted fill is `30%`. Also calculate the change in degree of saturation.

An embankment of `1,00,000 m^3` volume has to be constructed by compacting soil brought from excavation site. After compaction, dry unit weight of compacted soil (embankment) will be `16(KN)/M^3`. Also, bulk unit weight and water content of soil at excavation site are `12 (KN)/M^3` and `15%` respectively. Find volume and weight of soil to be excavated from excavation site. Take specific gravity of soil solid as `2.70`.

A relative density test conducted on a sandy soil obtained the following results: maximum void ratio`=1.25`, minimum void ratio `=0.45`,relative density`=40%`, and `G=2.65`. Find the dry density of soil in the present state. If a `3m` thickness of this stratum is densified to a relative density of `60%`, how much will the soil reduce in thickness? What will be the new density in dry and in saturated conditions?
