A sample of clay was obtained from a point below the water table. An oven-drying test performed on this sample resulted in the following data:
Mass of can= 10.88 g
Mass of can + wet soil = 116.02 g
Mass of can + dry soil= 85.34 g
Assume Gs=2.65
and S=1
1)Compute the gravimetric water content
2) compute the void ratio
3) compute the unit weight and dry weight
4) compute the buoyant unit weight
