Summary of Formulas and Lecture Notes
Problem 1: A soil sample has a bulk unit weight of 19 kN/m 3 at a water content of 10%. Assuming G= 2, determine the percentage air in the voids (air voids). Problem 2: In an experiment of determining the porosity and specific gravity of solids of a soil, a soil is dug out from the ground, weighed, then oven dried, and then saturated with water.

Unit Weight of Construction Materials
Unit weight or density is used to quantify the weight per unit volume of an object. When it is expressed in the basic SI Unit of mass (kg/m 3), it is usually referred to as density, but when expressed in terms of weight (kN/m 3), it is usually referred to as unit weight.. Density (kg/m 3) = Mass (kg)/Volume (m 3). The unit weight of a material is very …

Soil Unit Weight Technical Note
The unit weight, also known as the 'weight density', of a soil refers to its weight per cubic metre and is typically expressed as kilonewtons per cubic metre (kN/m3), or tons per cubic metre (t/m3)1. Knowing the unit weight of a soil is particularly important for geotechnical design, as well as assessing earthworks volumes.

How to Calculate Unit Weight | Sciencing
Tips. About the Author. Unit weight, also called specific weight, is a physical quantity similar to density, except that it is weight (mass times gravity) divided by volume rather than mass divided by volume. This is also density times gravity. Unit weight calculator websites are useful in related problems.
