This formula uses 4 Variables

Variables Used

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.
Density Compaction Ratio - Density Compaction Ratio is the ratio of minimum dry density to maximum dry density.
Relative Density - Relative Density is the ratio of the density of a soil or granular material in its natural, in-situ state to the maximum density it can achieve when fully compacted under controlled conditions.
Density Compaction - Density Compaction is the process of increasing the density of soil by mechanically reducing the volume of air between soil particles.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Density Compaction Ratio: 0.8 --> No Conversion Required
Relative Density: 3.4 --> No Conversion Required
Density Compaction: 4 --> No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

R_c = DCR/(1-RD*(1-R_o)) --> 0.8/(1-3.4*(1-4))

Evaluating ... ...
