What is disturbed and undisturbed soil sample?
The zero Air Void line is obtained when there is no presence of the air in the pores of a soil mass and totally filled with the water and soil mass get saturated. It is determined by the compaction test of a soil. Draw the graph between Dry Density VS water content, calculate the dry density from thRead more
The zero Air Void line is obtained when there is no presence of the air in the pores of a soil mass and totally filled with the water and soil mass get saturated. It is determined by the compaction test of a soil. Draw the graph between Dry Density VS water content, calculate the dry density from the compaction test results, and Zero Air void line is drawn on the graph.

Disturbed soil sample is one in which the structure of the soil has been changed sufficiently that tests of the structural properties of the soil will not be representatives of in-situ conditions, and only properties of soil grains can be accurately determined. Undisturbed soil sample is one where tRead more
Disturbed soil sample is one in which the structure of the soil has been changed sufficiently that tests of the structural properties of the soil will not be representatives of in-situ conditions, and only properties of soil grains can be accurately determined.
Undisturbed soil sample is one where the condition of the soil in the sample is close enough to the conditions of the soil in in-situ to allow tests of structural properties of the soil to be used to approximate the properties of the soil in-situ.
