Abstract

For all the species covered here, values for physical properties not given directly in the data sheets or graphs can be calculated from the data presented by means of simple formulae, most of which are also given in this publication. Examples of such calculations would include: the density at a moisture content other than that given; calculation of the density from the nominal specific gravity or vice versa; the maximum moisture content; void volume.
