摘要
Measurement of the moisture content of inorganic soils is frequently needed for many engineering activities. The standard test method by ASTM D2216 is very accurate, but the associated drying time up to 24h is not always desirable. This study investigates the usability of infrared (IR) drying of inorganic soils in reducing the drying time under constant temperature. It was found that accuracy of the proposed IR oven method is excellent and the associated drying time is 80% less than that of a conventional convective oven. Drying time for zero plasticity soils such as sands was found to be about 1min per gram of initial sample mass. Soil plasticity was found to increase the drying time up to 100% compared to that of zero plasticity soils.
