Question I (50%): An undisturbed cylindrical soil sample is 60 mm in diameter and 152 mm long and having a mass of 816 g. After finding the mass of the entire sample, a small portion was removed and a moisture content determination test was performed on it. The results of this test on the sub- samples were as follows: • Mass of can = 22.01 g • Mass of can + moist soil = 124.97 g • Mass of can + dry soil = 112.72 g Using Gs = 2.7, compute: a) [8%] b) [8%] c) [8%] d) [8%] e) [8%] f) [10% ] bulk unit weight, dry unit weight, void ratio, porosity, degree of saturation, water content of the clay.
