Force per Unit Area Required for Penetration of Standard Material Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Force Per Unit Area Standard = (Force per Unit Area/California Bearing Ratio)
F_s = (F/CBR)
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Force Per Unit Area Standard - (Measured in Pascal) - Force Per Unit Area Standard is required for corresponding penetration of a standard material.
Force per Unit Area - (Measured in Pascal) - Force per Unit Area is the distribution of force within a material or structure per unit area.
California Bearing Ratio - California Bearing Ratio is used as a measure of the quality of strength of a soil that underlies a pavement.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Force per Unit Area: 3 Newton per Square Meter --> 3 Pascal (Check conversion here)
California Bearing Ratio: 0.47 --> No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

F_s = (F/CBR) --> (3/0.47)

Evaluating ... ...

F_s = 6.38297872340426

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

6.38297872340426 Pascal -->6.38297872340426 Newton per Square Meter (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

6.38297872340426 ≈ 6.382979 Newton per Square Meter <-- Force Per Unit Area Standard

Percent Moisture in Sand Cone Method

Go Percent Moisture from Sand Cone Test = (100*(Weight of Moist Soil-Weight of Dry Soil))/Weight of Dry Soil

Density of Sand given Volume of Soil for Sand Filling in Sand Cone Method

Go Density of Sand = (Weight of Total Soil/Volume of Soil)

Volume of Soil for Sand Filling in Sand Cone Method

Go Volume of Soil = (Weight of Total Soil/Density of Sand)

Weight of Sand Filling Hole in Sand Cone Method

Go Weight of Total Soil = (Volume of Soil*Density of Sand)

Force per Unit Area Required for Penetration of Standard Material Formula

Force Per Unit Area Standard = (Force per Unit Area/California Bearing Ratio)
F_s = (F/CBR)

What is California Bearing Ratio?

The California Bearing Ratio test is a penetration test used to evaluate the subgrade strength of roads and pavements. The results of these tests are used with the curves to determine the thickness of pavement and its component layers. This is the most widely used method for the design of flexible pavement.
