Any given volume, V of soil (Fig. 3.1) consists of: (i) Volume of solids Vs (ii) Volume of liquid (water) Vw, and (iii) Volume of gas (air) Va The porosity n, the volumetric moisture content w and the saturation s are defined as N = Vv/V Obviously, w = s.n. Further, if the weight of water in a wet soil [...]
