Calculate the percentage of change in total volume with


A montmorillonite clay has a liquid limit of 160, a plastic limit of 75 and a shrinkage limit of 10. Calculate the percentage of change in total volume with respect to its initial volume when a specimen of this clay is completely dried from a water content of 80%. Assume that the clay remains saturated from liquid limit to shrinkage limit. The solid density of the soil is 2.7 Mg/m3
