Weight relationships 4
The common terms used for weight relationships
are moisture content, wmoisture content, w
and unit weight γunit weight, γ.

Moisture content, w 5

Moisture content is also known as water content, w, is expressed either in terms of weight or mass.

A small w indicates a dry soil, while a large w indicates a wet one.
Usual values: 3 to 70%
Moisture content values greater than 100% are found in soft soils below ground water table.

Unit weight, γ 6
Geotechnical engineers often need to know the unit weight, γ:
W=γ
V=γ
Two variations of unit weight are commonly used, the dry unit weight, γd, and the unit weight of water, γw:
Ws wW
Vs
d =γw
ww V=γ
Normally we use γ = 9 81 kN/m3 = 62 4 lb/ft3 for fresh water andNormally we use γw = 9.81 kN/m = 62.4 lb/ft for fresh water, and γw = 10.1 kN/m3 = 64.0 lb/ft3 for sea water
Th i i h f il b l h d bl (GWT) iThe unit weight of soil below the ground water table (GWT) is called saturated unit weight, γsat.

Specific gravity of solids, Gs14
The specific gravity of any material is the ratio of its density to that of water.
In case of soils, we compute it for the solid phase only, and express the results as the specific gravity of solids, Gs:
ssss V
WVWGγγ
==wsw V γγ
This is quite different from the specific gravity of the entire soil hi h ld i l d lid d i h f dmass, which would include solid, water, and air. Therefore, do not
make the common mistake of computing Gs as γ/γw.
For most of soils, Gs is from 2.60 to 2.80.
