Entry: Water content measure

URI: https://data.geoscience.fr/ncl/Proc/108

The water content (also known as moisture) is the massic percentage of water contained in the soil divided by the dry weight. The practical procedure for determining the water content of a soil is to determine the mass loss on drying the test specimen to a constant mass in a drying oven controlled at a given temperature. The mass loss is assumed to be due to free water and is referenced to the remaining dry mass of solid particles.

fr La teneur en eau est le pourcentage massique d'eau contenue dans un sol, rapporté à sa masse sèche. Le mode opératoire permettant de définir la teneur en eau d'un sol consiste à déterminer la perte de masse par dessiccation de l'éprouvette jusqu'à masse constante dans une étuve de séchage asservie à une température donnée. On considère que la perte de masse est due à l'eau libre, et elle est mise en relation avec la masse sèche restante des particules solides.
