Relative Compaction given Void Ratio Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Relative Compaction = (1+Minimum Void Ratio)/(1+Void Ratio)
R_c = (1+e_min)/(1+e)
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Relative Compaction - Relative Compaction is the ratio of dry density to max dry density.
Minimum Void Ratio - Minimum Void Ratio is the ratio of soil in its densest state.
Void Ratio - Void Ratio is the ratio of the volume of voids to the volume of solids.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Minimum Void Ratio: 0.3 --> No Conversion Required
Void Ratio: 1.2 --> No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

R_c = (1+e_min)/(1+e) --> (1+0.3)/(1+1.2)

Evaluating ... ...

R_c = 0.590909090909091

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.590909090909091 --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

0.590909090909091 ≈ 0.590909 <-- Relative Compaction

What is Void Ratio?

The void ratio of a mixture is the ratio of the volume of voids to volume of solids. It is a dimensionless quantity in materials science, and is closely related to porosity.

How to Calculate Relative Compaction given Void Ratio?

Relative Compaction given Void Ratio calculator uses Relative Compaction = (1+Minimum Void Ratio)/(1+Void Ratio) to calculate the Relative Compaction, The Relative Compaction given Void Ratio is defined as the ratio of in-place wet density to test the maximum wet density of the same soil or aggregate. In-place wet density is determined in the field using sand volume cone, volumetric, or other field soil density apparatus. Relative Compaction is denoted by R_c symbol.

How to calculate Relative Compaction given Void Ratio using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Relative Compaction given Void Ratio, enter Minimum Void Ratio (e_min) & Void Ratio (e) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Relative Compaction given Void Ratio calculation can be explained with given input values -> 0.590909 = (1+0.3)/(1+1.2).

FAQ

What is Relative Compaction given Void Ratio?

The Relative Compaction given Void Ratio is defined as the ratio of in-place wet density to test the maximum wet density of the same soil or aggregate. In-place wet density is determined in the field using sand volume cone, volumetric, or other field soil density apparatus and is represented as R_c = (1+e_min)/(1+e) or Relative Compaction = (1+Minimum Void Ratio)/(1+Void Ratio). Minimum Void Ratio is the ratio of soil in its densest state & Void Ratio is the ratio of the volume of voids to the volume of solids.

How to calculate Relative Compaction given Void Ratio?

The Relative Compaction given Void Ratio is defined as the ratio of in-place wet density to test the maximum wet density of the same soil or aggregate. In-place wet density is determined in the field using sand volume cone, volumetric, or other field soil density apparatus is calculated using Relative Compaction = (1+Minimum Void Ratio)/(1+Void Ratio). To calculate Relative Compaction given Void Ratio, you need Minimum Void Ratio (e_min) & Void Ratio (e). With our tool, you need to enter the respective value for Minimum Void Ratio & Void Ratio and hit the calculate button. You can also select the units (if any) for Input(s) and the Output as well.

How many ways are there to calculate Relative Compaction?

In this formula, Relative Compaction uses Minimum Void Ratio & Void Ratio. We can use 2 other way(s) to calculate the same, which is/are as follows -

Relative Compaction = Dry Density/Dry Density Maximum
Relative Compaction = Density Compaction Ratio/(1-Relative Density*(1-Density Compaction))
