Physical Properties of Soil
Article shared by :
The relative proportions of solids, water, and air have a strong influence on the engineering behavior of a soil as well as on its resistance to deformation due to loads from structures. The following basic physical properties are defined and used to study and understand the soil behavior: 1. Physical Properties in Terms of Volume: […]
