Calculating Specific
Gravity
Introduction :
Test Specimens :
Water in flask
Bring the flask and fill it with distilled water to 250ml.
Calculations
Test results:
Mass of the soil W3
W3 = 100g
= 2.601
Conclusions:
Our group has Gs = 2.6, and we are the most
accurate result.
Appendix:
Gs = (W3)/( (W1 + W3) - W2 ).
