Dry Unit Weight Calculator

Dry Unit Weight of Soil Calculation

This calculator can be used to determine the dry unit weight of a soil or solid bulk cargo. Dry unit weight (γd) is the dry weight of soil per unit volume and It is usually expressed as kN/m³.

Formula:

γd=ρst(e+1)xg

Where:
γd = dry unit weight,
ρst = specific gravity or particle density,
e = void ratio, and
g = acceleration due to gravity (~9.81 m/s²).
