the height of the specimen at the beggining of the test was25.4mm,and the diameter was 63.5mm.the moist specimen weighed 140g and the water content was determined to be 19%.Estimate the comperison index and pre condosilation pressure from thr e-log a' curver Give2.7.

 


SOLUTION:

 

We will use second formula

 

 

A = area

= specific gravity

 = unit weight of water

 = ? =  * 100

= 26.6

 = 140 – 26.6

 = 113.4g

Area = A = 31.669

 = 2.7

 = 1g/

 =

 = 1.326 cm
