\"\"<\/p>\n

The image above represents dry unit weight of soil. To calculate dry unit weight of soil, two essential parameters are needed and these parameters are Unit weight of soil (\u03b3)\u00a0<\/strong>and\u00a0Moisture content (w).<\/strong><\/p>\n

The formula for calculating dry unit weight of soil:<\/p>\n

\u03b3d<\/sub>\u00a0=\u00a0\u03b3<\/sup>\u00a0\/\u00a01 + w<\/sub><\/p>\n

Where:<\/p>\n

\u03b3d<\/sub>\u00a0= Dry Unit Weight of Soil
\n\u03b3 = Unit Weight of Soil
\nw = Moisture Content<\/p>\n

Let’s solve an example;
\nFind the dry unit weight of soil when the unit weight of soil is 12 and the moisture content is 6.<\/p>\n

This implies that;<\/p>\n

\u03b3 = Unit Weight of Soil = 12
\nw = Moisture Content = 6<\/p>\n

\u03b3d<\/sub>\u00a0=\u00a0\u03b3<\/sup>\u00a0\/\u00a01 + w<\/sub>
\nThat is, \u03b3d<\/sub>\u00a0=\u00a012<\/sup>\u00a0\/\u00a01 + 6<\/sub>
\n\u03b3d<\/sub>\u00a0=\u00a012<\/sup>\u00a0\/\u00a07<\/sub>
\n\u03b3d<\/sub> = 1.71<\/p>\n

Therefore, the\u00a0dry unit weight of soil\u00a0<\/strong>is\u00a01.71.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Calculating for the Unit Weight of Soil when the Dry Unit Weight of Soil and the Moisture Content are Given<\/strong><\/h3>\n

\u03b3 = \u03b3d<\/sub> (1 + w)<\/p>\n

Where;<\/p>\n

\u03b3 = Unit Weight of Soil
\n\u03b3d<\/sub>\u00a0= Dry Unit Weight of Soil
\nw = Moisture Content<\/p>\n

Let’s solve an example;
\nFind the unit weight of soil when the dry unit weight of soil is 22 and the moisture content is 12.<\/p>\n

This implies that;<\/p>\n

\u03b3d<\/sub> = Dry Unit Weight of Soil = 22
\nw = Moisture Content = 12<\/p>\n

\u03b3 = \u03b3d<\/sub> (1 + w)
\nThen, \u03b3 = 22 (1 + 12)
\n\u03b3 = 22 (13)
\n\u03b3 = 286<\/p>\n

Therefore, the\u00a0unit weight of soil\u00a0<\/strong>is\u00a0286.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Calculating the Moisture Content when the Dry Unit Weight of Soil and the Unit Weight are Given<\/strong><\/h3>\n

w = \u03b3<\/sup> \/ \u03b3d<\/sub><\/sub> – 1<\/p>\n

Where;<\/p>\n

w = Moisture Content
\n\u03b3d<\/sub>\u00a0= Dry Unit Weight of Soil
\n\u03b3 = Unit Weight of Soil<\/p>\n

Let’s solve an example;
\nFind the moisture content when the dry unit weight of soil is 6 and the unit weight of soil is 24.<\/p>\n

This implies that;<\/p>\n

\u03b3d<\/sub> = Dry Unit Weight of Soil = 6
\n\u03b3 = Unit Weight of Soil = 24<\/p>\n

w = \u03b3<\/sup> \/ \u03b3d<\/sub><\/sub> – 1
\nSo, w = 24<\/sup> \/ 6<\/sub> – 1
\nw = 4 – 1
\nw = 3<\/p>\n

Therefore, the\u00a0moisture content\u00a0<\/strong>is\u00a03.<\/strong><\/p>\n
