  2. Structural Soil - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structural_Soil

    Structural soil is composed of crushed stone (typically limestone or granite) narrowly graded from ¾-1 ½” highly angular with no fines, clay loam which should conform to the USDA soil classification system. The hydrogel is added in a small amount to prevent the separation of the stone and soil during mixing and installation.

  3. Drainage equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drainage_equation

    The drainage formula can be amplified [10] to account for (see figure on the right): the additional energy associated with the incoming percolation water , see groundwater energy balance; multiple soil layers; anisotropic hydraulic conductivity, the vertical conductivity (Kv) being different from the horizontal (Kh)

  4. Acre-foot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acre-foot

    As the name suggests, an acre-foot is defined as the volume of one acre of surface area to a depth of one foot.. Since an acre is defined as a chain by a furlong (i.e. 66 ft × 660 ft or 20.12 m × 201.17 m), an acre-foot is 43,560 cubic feet (1,233.5 m 3).

  5. Cubic yard - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cubic_yard

    A cubic yard (symbol yd 3) [1] is an Imperial / U.S. customary (non-SI non-metric) unit of volume, used in Canada and the United States. It is defined as the volume of a cube with sides of 1 yard (3 feet , 36 inches , 0.9144 meters ) in length .

  6. Hoppus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hoppus

    This volume measurement was developed to estimate what volume of a round log would be usable timber after processing, in effect attempting to ‘square’ the log and allow for waste. The hoppus ton (HT) was also a traditionally used unit of volume in British forestry. One hoppus ton is equal to 50 hoppus feet or 1.8027 cubic meters.

  7. Rod (unit) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rod_(unit)

    The rod, perch, or pole (sometimes also lug) is a surveyor's tool [1] and unit of length of various historical definitions. In British imperial and US customary units, it is defined as 16 + 1 ⁄ 2 feet, equal to exactly 1 ⁄ 320 of a mile, or 5 + 1 ⁄ 2 yards (a quarter of a surveyor's chain), and is exactly 5.0292 meters.

  9. Soil - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soil

    Soil bulk density, when determined at standardized moisture conditions, is an estimate of soil compaction. [60] Soil porosity consists of the void part of the soil volume and is occupied by gases or water. Soil consistency is the ability of soil materials to stick together. Soil temperature and colour are self-defining.
