Based on the laboratory testing, the cement content required to stabilize the poor sandy subgrade soil is 7.3 % by the dry weight of soil and the maximum dry density is 1812 kg/m³. Compute the amount of cement (kg) per cubic meter required to stabilize a certain section of earthwork with the dimension of 8.7 km length, 10 m width, and 20 cm depth if that the relative compaction degree is 95 %?
