Results of a standard compaction test (mold volume 943.9 cm3 ) are:

Trial No. 1 Mass of soil + mold 5619g
Mass of mold 3735g
Water content test
Mass of sample + container 288.26g
Mass of dry sample + container 265.39g
Mass of container 104.31g

Trial No. 2 Dry density 1795 kg/m^3 w=14.9%
Trial No. 3 Dry density 1828 kg/m^3 w=15.6%
Trial No. 4 Dry density 1832 kg/m^3 w=16.5%
Trial No. 5 Dry density 1796 kg/m^3 w=17.6%

a. Complete the calculations for trial No. 1.
b. Draw the moisture-density curve using Excel or other spreadsheet programs. Include ZAV curves at w=16%, 17%, and 18%. (The relative density of the soil is 2.65.) Find the maximum dry density and the optimum water content.

The answers to the question are

Dry density for trial number  1 = 1747.82 kg/m³

Water Content for trial number  1 = 14.1979 %

Explanation:

To solve the question we have

Moist Unit Weight (γm) =  

= = 19573.82 N/m³

Water Content  ω  =  

= × 100 = 14.1979 %

Dry unit weight, =  =   = 17140.26 N/m³

Bulk density = mass / density = =1995.97 kg/m³

Dry density = = 1747.82 kg/m³

Please find the Moisture Density Curve

answer: i have no clue tbh

explanation:

it happens to me to tho

answer: copyright is extremely important to authors because it constitutes the ownership of one's original work. having ownership means you can protect your work as intellectual property and control who makes money from it—which is you and those to whom you assign rights.
