The recommended time weighted average air concentration for occupational exposure to water soluble hexavalent chromium (Cr VI) i
s 0.05 mg/m3. This concentration is based on the assumption that the individual is generally healthy and is exposed for 8 hours per day, 5 days per week, 50 weeks per year, over a working lifetime (that is from age 18 to 65 years). Assuming a body weight of 78 kg and inhalation rate of 15.2 m3/d over the working life of the individual, calculate the lifetime (75 years) CDI.

Answer:
- Moisture/ water content w = 26%
- Void ratio , e = 0.73
Explanation:
- Initial mass of saturated soil w1 = mass of soil - weight of container
= 113.27 g - 49.31 g = 63.96 g
- Final mass of soil after oven w2 = mass of soil - weight of container
= 100.06 g - 49.31 g = 50.75
Moisture /water content, w = =
= 0.26 = 26%
Void ratio = water content X specific gravity of solid
= 0.26 X 2.80 =0.728
