Total Weight of Soil
Total weight of soil, abbreviated as \( W_t \), is the total weight of soil plus the total weight of water.
Total Weight of Soil formula |

\( W_t = W_s + W_w \) (Total Weight of Soil) \( W_s = W_t - W_w \) \( W_w = W_t - W_s \) |

\( W_t \) = total weight of soil | \(lbf\) | \(N\) |
\( W_s \) = weight of soil | \(lbf\) | \(N\) |
\( W_w \) = weight of water | \(lbf\) | \(N\) |
