The ratio of saturated unit weight to dry unit weight of dry unit weight is 1.25. If the specific gravity of solids (Gs) is 2.56, the void ratio of the soil is
-
- 0.625
- 0.663
- 0.944
- 1.325
Correct Option: B
| = 1.25 | γw |
| γsat = | 1 + e |
| γd = | 1 + e |
| ∴ | = | |||
| G | 1 + e |
| ∴ γsat = | (G + e) | G |
| ⇒ | = | |||
| γd | G |
| ⇒ 1.25 = | 2.65 |
∴ e = 0.663
