Calculation of void ratio, degree of saturation and moisture content part 1

[@MagmaUpwelling]

Correction: In calculating the moisture content, Mc = Mw/Ms, Ms stands for weight or mass of the dry sample, which is 27.2kg and not 30.6kg, so Mw should be divided by 27.2 kg
Hence, Mc = Mw/Ms
Mc= 30.6- 27.2/ 27.2
= 3.4/ 27.2
= 0.125 or 12.5 %
You can also use the following formula to find the moisture content
Mc = Vw/VsGs
You will end up with the same answer.

This is amazying info! thank you for make it easy to understeand.
just one question, what are the units of specific gravity? it should be in kg m^3?

[@MagmaUpwelling]

The specific gravity of soil is a ratio or dimensionless unit and hence it has no unit. It is the ratio of density of soil to the density of water.

[@AnaMayana-u9k]

hello what should i do if the given is only void ratio, Gs, and submerged unit weight. i need to solve the bulk density

[@MagmaUpwelling]

Post the question here so I can figure it out...

Part 2

[@alanvidal7148]

S=57.6%?

[@MagmaUpwelling]

Yeah, in percentage
