Weight of Solids given Dry Unit Weight of Soil Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Weight of Solids in Soil Mechanics = Total Volume in Soil Mechanics*Dry Density
W_s = V*ρ_d
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Weight of Solids in Soil Mechanics - (Measured in Kilogram) - Weight of Solids in Soil Mechanics means the actual weight of the solid particle present in the soil.
Total Volume in Soil Mechanics - (Measured in Cubic Meter) - Total Volume in Soil Mechanics is defined as the total capacity.
Dry Density - (Measured in Kilogram per Cubic Meter) - Dry Density is defined as the mass of soil particles per unit volume of soil when the soil is completely dry.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Total Volume in Soil Mechanics: 12.254 Cubic Meter --> 12.254 Cubic Meter No Conversion Required
Dry Density: 0.049 Kilogram per Cubic Meter --> 0.049 Kilogram per Cubic Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

W_s = V*ρ_d --> 12.254*0.049

Evaluating ... ...

W_s = 0.600446

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.600446 Kilogram --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

0.600446 Kilogram <-- Weight of Solids in Soil Mechanics

(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)

< Unit Weight of Soil Calculators

Gross Pressure Intensity given Average Unit Weight of Soil

Go Gross Pressure = Net Pressure+(Unit Weight of Soil*Depth of Footing in Soil)

Average Unit Weight of Soil given Net Pressure Intensity

Go Unit Weight of Soil = (Gross Pressure-Net Pressure)/Depth of Footing in Soil

Average Unit Weight of Soil given Effective Surcharge

Go Unit Weight of Soil = Effective Surcharge in Kilopascal/Depth of Footing in Soil

Gross Pressure Intensity given Net Pressure Intensity

Go Gross Pressure = Net Pressure+Effective Surcharge in Kilopascal

Weight of Solids given Dry Unit Weight of Soil Formula

Weight of Solids in Soil Mechanics = Total Volume in Soil Mechanics*Dry Density
W_s = V*ρ_d
