Question of Soil Machanics. Thanks.
Q4 In an oedometer test, the diameter of the clay sample was 70 mm and its original thickness was 19 mm. A normal pressure was applied to the sample and the reduction in thickness was 4 mm after 24 hours. The mass of the soil before and after the compression was measured to be 138.9 g and 123.5 g, respectively, and the dry mass of the soil was found to be 99.5 g. Assuming the...
