Please i need help to solve this question.. A sample of the soil was taken for oedometer test and the initial thickness of the sample was 19 mm for astress increment of 100 kPa, calculate coefficient of permeability(k), coefficient of compressibility (mv) andcoefficient of consolidation (cv) from the data obtained as following: (hint: use the root time method). Thank you
A one-dimensional consolidation test was performed on a sample, 0.75-inch high, taken from a field clay layer. During the test, drainage was allowed at the upper and lower boundaries. It took the lab sample 15 minutes to reach 50% consolidation. If the clay layer in the field has the same drainage condition as the lab sample, calculate how many days it will require the 10 feet clay layer to achieve 50% and 90% consolidation.
What is meant by Proctor’s Compaction test. Main purpose of learning Proctor’s Compaction Test?
Read the question carefully and give me both a&b right solutions. A proctor compaction test in the laboratory on a borrow pit soil gives maximum unit weight of 19 kN/m3 and optimum water content of 11.5%. The bulk unit weight and water content of the soil in the borrow pit are 17.2 kN/m3 and 8.2%, respectively. A highway fill is to be constructed using this soil. The specifications require the fill to be compacted to 95% Proctor compaction. (a) What is the additional weight of water per unit volume required to bring the moisture content to the optimum value to achieve 95% Proctor compaction? (b) How many truckloads of borrow pit soil will be required for a 100,000 m3 highway embankment - assuming each truck has a capacity of 10 m3 ?
CONSTANT-HEAD PERMEABILITY TEST METHOD and FALLING HEAD PERMEABILITYTEST METHOD When it comes to the procedure, what is the difference between the two laboratory permeability determinations? What are the difference between the two laboratory determinations of permeability when it comes to the results?
(1) The moisture content of a clay soil intended for civil work is 22.4 %. The specific gravity of the solid portion of the clay soil is 2.71. Critically analysis the variation of void with degree of saturation and Examine the void ratio, and the dry and wet densities at 50 % saturation on the soil samples (2) A soil to be used for GOIL filing station has been found to have a volume of 14.88 , the total mass of 28.81g and dry mass of 24.83 g. Specific gravity of the solid particles has also been found to be 2.7. As a Civil Engineer discuss the implication of: void ratio and degree of saturation.
