    Hi. Some days when we are coring in rocks,sometime mudstone and muddy material get stuck in the core tube as a result the opperatore open the tube along with the core sample inside.

    Cbr load

    The CBR is generally selected at 2.54 mm (0.10 in.) penetration. If the ratio at 5.08 mm (0.20 in.) penetration is greater, the test shall be rerun. If the check test gives a similar result, the ratio at 5.08 mm (0.20 in.) penetration shall be used (aashto T193-99…2003)Thn what does this mean?

    Cbr load

    Is this beacause of that first layer of soil in cbr mold get more compactive enegry and become more compected as compare to the last layer. Because we rotate the cbr mold in an upside down maner and plunger start penetration from first laye of the mold(bottom layer in cbr mold preparation).Amvi...

    Erosion of soil

    Great Eire...here the erosion will be controlled by stone pitching and then motor grouting will be done. But this issue come before stone pitching. How and what material will be good to fill the space beneath the chute. Becouse if we dump soil thn how we will compact that

    Erosion of soil

    Rienforced concrete chutes have been constructed on highyway embankment side slope. Rain water erode almost all the material beneath the chutes. How we can correct this problem to stablized the chutes. Is there any proper method or remedy for this issue.

    Sand Equivalent

    Yes sir your thoughts are nice...but why not to the nearest small whole number? Why always next whole number..example 7.1 should be reported as 8 why not 7.

    Sand Equivalent

    Why during sand equivalent test the reported value should be taken to the nearest higher whole number..is there any scientific reason for that or its just for the purpose of ease..thanks

    % of H2O and % of bitumen

    Ok..can we say that in bitumen extraction test we include bitumen in divisor bcz in blend making during mix design we take bitumen in calculation
  17. Geokhan

    % of H2O and % of bitumen

    Yes sir... Thats my question. Why they have two different formulas for % calculation.
  18. Geokhan

    % of H2O and % of bitumen

    Ron,BigH,GEG,fd,ECh,and many others did i ask the right question?
