A compacted fill is to be constructed. The soil can be taken from two areas. Area A: e = 0.80, w = 16% and Gs = 2.65 Area B: e = 0.60, w = 12% and Gs = 2.65 The compacted volume of soil in fill is 50000 m3 with water content and unit weight of 20% and 20 kN/m3, respectively. Find the ratio of soil to be excavated from Area A to that of Area B.
