It means the density of the soil when it is dry e.g. there is no water
the water which is added in the soil should be usefull for compaction of soil to know the dry density of the soil
this is the top part of soil this is not wet hard and dry.
dry soil
Definitely, soil texture influences soil bulk density
loomy soil- is ideal for planting vegetables. clay soil- is very hard when dry and sticky when wet. sand soil - is a combination of sand -it cannot hold the water
i have bulk desity of soil and have natural moisture how can i get unit weight of soil
Concerning the second Question: "Can you find bulk density with just this info?"Purely on mathematical insight and analysis:Yes, you should be able to find the bulk density of dry soil, given the 'dry overall' and the 'particle' densities.When wet, there is not enough 'given'Also some should be known about the (or your) definition of porosity
the water which is added in the soil should be usefull for compaction of soil to know the dry density of the soil
this is the top part of soil this is not wet hard and dry.
It depends on the density of the soil. If the soil is compacted or stepped on or moist of dry the amount of soil in 1m x 1m x 1m is going to vary. The density of loose soil is about 1200 kg per m3
sand replacement method is used for determining the dry density of soil
Density = mass divided by volume (mass/volume) Example: A block of wood weighs 3.5 kg (or 3,500 grams) It is 9 cm x 4 cm x 55 cm (9 x 4 x 55 = 1,980 cm3) 3500/1980 = 1.768 grams/ cm3
You can figure out the dry density by dividing the wet density by (1+moisture content), with the moisture content in decimal form. So 130 / (1 + 0.19) = 109.24.
