Q1: If the coefficients of volume change and compressibility of a soil sample are respectively 6.75 x 10-2 and 3 x 10-2, the void ratio of the soil sample, isA
1.10
B
1.15
C
1.20
D
1.25
E
1.30
ANS:D - 1.25 Coeff.compressibility = Coeff.volume change/(1 + e). (1 + e) = Coeff.volume change/Coeff.compressibility. e = (Coeff.volume change/Coeff.compressibility) - 1. e = ((6.75 x 10-2)/(3 x 10-2)) - 1. e = 2.25 - 1. e = 1.25. |
