A saturates soil mass has a total density 22 kN/m3 and a water content of 10%. The bulk density and dry density of this soil are
-
- 12 kN/m3 and 20 kN/m3 respectively.
- 22 kN/m3 and 20 kN/m3 respectively.
- 19.8 kN/m3 and 19.8 kN/m3 respectively.
- 23.2 kN/m3 and 19.8 kN/m3 respectively.
Correct Option: B
For saturated soil,
γbulk = γsat = 22 kN/m3
| γd = | 1 + w |
| = | = 20 kN/m3 | 1 + 0.1 |
