Dry Density given Relative Compaction in Density Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Dry Density = Relative Compaction*Maximum Dry Density
ρ_d = R_c*γ_dmax
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Dry Density - (Measured in Kilogram per Cubic Meter) - Dry Density is a measure of the mass of solids per unit volume of soil, excluding the pore spaces filled with water or air. It is expressed in terms of mass per unit volume.
Relative Compaction - Relative Compaction is the ratio of the density of a compacted soil or aggregate material to its maximum achievable density under specific conditions.
Maximum Dry Density - (Measured in Kilogram per Cubic Meter) - Maximum Dry Density is the highest density that a soil sample can achieve when compacted at its optimum moisture content under standard or modified effort.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Relative Compaction: 2.5 --> No Conversion Required
Maximum Dry Density: 4.76 Kilogram per Cubic Meter --> 4.76 Kilogram per Cubic Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

ρ_d = R_c*γ_dmax --> 2.5*4.76

Evaluating ... ...

ρ_d = 11.9

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

11.9 Kilogram per Cubic Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

11.9 Kilogram per Cubic Meter <-- Dry Density
