Abstract

The invention provides a volume substitution method for measuring soil grain density. A soil grain volume is calculated according to a water injection volume by a volume substitution mode; the soil grain mass can be obtained through drying and weighing, and therefore, the soil grain density can be calculated. The volume substitution method for measuring the soil grain density is implemented by a wet method or a dry method. The invention also provides equipment used in the method. The equipment consists of a constant volume vessel, weighing equipment, water injection equipment and drying equipment, wherein the constant volume vessel is used for containing a soil sample to be measured; the water injection equipment is used for injecting water into the constant volume vessel; the drying equipment is used for drying the soil sample to be measured; the weighing equipment is used for weighing the mass. The method disclosed by the invention can be suitable for measurement of the grain density of soil with any property; the operation process is simple and convenient; the long-term problems of complexity in operation, boundedness in measurement range and the like which exist in a pycnometer method, a floating weighing method, a siphon tube method and the like which are used for measuring the soil grain density are solved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of soil science, in particular to a volume replacement method and equipment for measuring the density of soil particles. Background technique [0002] Solid particles in the soil have a significant impact on the retention and migration of heat, moisture, and chemical substances in the soil. Soil particle density, also known as soil specific gravity, is the dried mass of soil per unit volume (excluding pores). Its size is related to the mineral structure and chemical composition of the soil. The determination of soil particle density is an important item in conventional physical tests of geotechnical engineering. [0003] At present, the main methods of measuring soil particle density are pycnometer method, float method, siphon cylinder method and so on. The pycnometer method is a routine method of laboratory measurement that is widely used at home and abroad. Although the measurement accuracy is high, it is limited ...
