Question:medium

Proctor's compaction test for the maximum dry density of a certain soil gave the results as $1.8 \text{ gm/cc}$ and Optimum Moisture Content (OMC) is $15%$. The specific gravity of the clay soil grain was 2.7. What was the saturation degree for this soil?

Show Hint

When $\gamma_d$ is given in gm/cc, always use $\gamma_w = 1 \text{ gm/cc}$ to simplify the math.
