Soil density and bulk density Bobot Jenis (BJ) dan Bobot Isi (BI) Soil density ( or Particle density) Soil density is the density of the solid soil particles only; the measurement does not include water weight or pore (air) space. The dominant soil minerals- quartz, feldspars, micas, and clay minerals- average approximately 2.65 g/cm 3, the “standard” value used in calculations if particle density is not measured. Individual minerals have densities from 2.0 g/cm 3 for bauxite (aluminum ore) to 5.3 for hematite (iron ore) or 7.6 for galena (lead ore).

Bobot Isi Tanah (Soil bulk density) 1. Bulk density, the density for a volume of soil as it exists naturally, includes any air space and organic materials in the soil volume. ρ b = (mass of dry soil)/(total volume of soil) = M s /V t = M s /(V s + V w +V a ) A recently cultivated topsoil is likely to have a bulk density in the range from 0.9 to 1.2 g/cm 3, while a compact subsoil may have a bulk density of 1.6 g/cm 3 or even more.

(1)International classification ： The textural triangle is used to determine the soil textural name after the percentages of sand (2-0.02mm), silt ( mm), and clay (<0.002 mm) are determined from a laboratory analysis. The main criterion of classification ： Clay <15% is sand and loamy groups; 15 ％－ 25 ％ is clay loam group; >25% is clay group. When soil contains silt >45% ， soil will be called “silty” ； When soil contains sand in 55%-85% ， called “sandy” ， When soil contains sand >85% ， called “ loamy sand”or “sand”.

一、 Soil structureness （一） Concept of soil structure Soil structure- The combination or arrangement of primary soil particles into secondary units or peds. The secondary units are characterized on the basis of size, shape, and grade (degree of distinctness). Soil Structure ( 二 ) Classes and types of soil structure Types of structure describe the ped shape with the terms granular, crumb, platy, blocky, subangular blocky, prismatic, and columnar.
