The specific gravity of soil grain is the mass ratio of the volume of dry soil in the pressure of air to the mass of the water of equal volume. Water is taken to be reference with a specific gravity of 1g/cm^3. The specific gravity of soil sample helps us to......

A soil is an aggregate of soil particles having a porous structure. The pores may have water or air. The pores are also known as voids. If voids carefully filled with water. The soil is called saturated soil and if voids have only air the soil is called dry. The moisture......
The aim of soil stability test is to determine the effect of cement on OMC & MDD of the given soil sample. Different soil samples exist with various dry and wet densities. After compaction, the voids are reduced and the density is increased. There exist certain soil type that do not......
