Unit Weight of Soil Solids Given Specific Gravity of Soil Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Unit Weight of Solids = Specific Gravity of Soil*Unit Weight of Water
γ_s = G_s*γ_water
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Unit Weight of Solids - (Measured in Kilonewton per Cubic Meter) - Unit Weight of Solids is the ratio of weight of solids to volume of solids.
Specific Gravity of Soil - Specific Gravity of Soil is an important property of soil being related to density.
Unit Weight of Water - (Measured in Kilonewton per Cubic Meter) - Unit Weight of Water is mass per unit of water.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Specific Gravity of Soil: 2.65 --> No Conversion Required
Unit Weight of Water: 9.81 Kilonewton per Cubic Meter --> 9.81 Kilonewton per Cubic Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

γ_s = G_s*γ_water --> 2.65*9.81

Evaluating ... ...

γ_s = 25.9965
