Definitions
Saturated density (ρsat) is the density of the soil when the voids are filled with water.
Submerged density (ρ’) is the effective density of the soil when it is submerged.
ρ’ = ρsat - ρw

Dry density (ρd) is the density of the soil in dry
state.

Definitions
Bulk, saturated, dry and submerged unit weights (γ)are defined in a similar manner.
γ = ρg
Here, use weight (kN) instead of mass (kg).
Specific gravity of the soil grains (Gs) typically varies between 2.6 and 2.8.

Try not to memorise the equations. Understand the definitions, and develop the relations from the phase diagram with VS = 1;
Assume GS (2.6-2.8) when not given;
Do not mix densities and unit weights;
Rock and Soil grains are incompressible. Their mass and volume remain the same at any void ratio.

Testing Times…
State whether the following are true or false?
(a) Dry density is greater than submerged density
(b) In unsaturated rocks, water content is always
less than 100%.
(c) Larger the void ratio, larger the porosity.

Durability of Rock Materials
Longevity of the materials for use in construction (fill, backfill, rockfill)
Will the rock deteriorate when exposed to the elements, time, freeze-thaw, wet-dry cycles, temperatures, chemicals.
Tests used to accelerate exposure (slake durability, LA abrasion, freeze-thaw).

Slake Durability Test of Rocks
Evaluate shales and weak rocks that may degrade in service environment.
Rock fragments of known weight placed in rotating drum apparatus (ASTM D 4644).
Materials are circulated through wet & dry cycles.
reweigh rock fragments to determine the Slake Durability Index (SDI).
