Extracted text: An embankment for a highway 35 m long and 1.6 m in compacted thickness is to be constructed from a sandy soil trucked from a borrow pit. The water content of the sandy soil in the borrow pit is 15% and its void ratio is 0.69. The specification requires the embankment to be compacted to a dry unit weight of 18 KN/m³, specific gravity of soil is 2.7. For a one-kilometer length of embankment, compute: a) Volume of the borrow pit soil required to construct the embankment| b) Determine the weight of water per truck load of sandy soil, if the capacity of a one truck load is 10 m3.
