Percent Voids for Gravel
Percent Voids for Gravel
(OP)
I am using gravel as a bedding underneath an open bottom valve/drain box and im not sure what percentage of voids we should assume for gravel? Any help on this issue, I would appreciate it.

Example:
Specific gravity of the aggregate is 2.7
void-free density would then be 168.5 pcf
bulk density (dry) of the aggregate is 112 pcf.
void ratio is 1-(112/168.5)=0.34
Hope this helps.

Use weight-volume relationship as suggested by fattdad.
