FE Civil Geotechnical - Phase Relationships Unit Weight Of Solids

In this video, we calculate the unit weight of solids for a given soil. This question is very similar to the question I got on my F.E. exam and Good luck to those who have their finals this week and the F.E. exam.

    Just starting to study for the civil FE exam. I only have a month to prepare for it, so the hardest part for me is not getting overwhelmed by all the material I need to go over. Your videos are a huge help! Thanks!

    Hello Bob, I hope studying is going well! I just want to let you know that I am still doing the "Problem a day series" on Patreon, www.patreon.com/enGENIEer. You can also ask me what kind of questions you would like to see next on patreon. There are already two questions that I have posted so far exclusively for my patreon supporters. I hope you enjoy it, thank you 😊 and good luck!

    enGENIEer I ended up pushing my test date back. With the amount of material I need to go through and having university start back up for the spring semester, I’m just going to need some more time to spend on it. Thanks for letting me know about Patreon..I’ll definitely check it out.

    enGENIEer I ended up taking it last week and passed. Not as hard as I thought.. I definitely over prepared. I didn’t really focus on the concepts that much, so that kinda messed me up. Again, thanks for all your help!

    Why haven't you subtracted the Vw from Vv? Thank you!

  • @Genieprep

    Hello, so Vv (volume of void) is equal to Vw (volume of water) + Va (volume of air), you can check the phase diagram on page 152 on the reference handbook. In this example, we are trying to solve for Vs (volume of solid), so we can get the unit weight of solid. By looking at the phase diagram, you can see that V (total volume) = Vv + Vs, where Vv = Vw+Va. So we solved for Vv (which includes Vw and Va), and we plug it back to solve for Vs. Therefore, there is no need to subtract Vw from Vv. I hope this makes sense and good luck.

    Hello Justin, thank you for watching. The format of our courses is similar to this format, except there is the intro video and there is also lectures, where I explain concepts. You can also check the sample videos that we have on our website, www.engenieer.com/lessons/welcome-to-the-fe-accelerator-afternoon/. Let me know if you have any other questions!
