On account of the greater accuracy attainable by weighing, the data given by the ap-parent specific gravityvariations are even moreconcordant than thosegiven by penetration meas-urements, which are moredifficult to make with ac-curacy on account of theinfluence of small irregu-larities in packing. The apparent - specific-gravity data obtained inconnection with the pene-tration measurements made when the soil was subjected to differentpacking pressures are shown by means of the curves in figure 10,.
