FAQ
Questions Excavation Volume Calculator owners ask.
- 01
How does the capability account for soil expansion?
The capability uses the get_loose_volume function which applies a swell factor to the bank volume to determine the total space the soil will occupy once excavated.
- 02
Can I get specific soil constants?
Yes, you can use get_soil_properties_lookup to retrieve standard swell, compaction, and shrinkage factors for common soil types.
- 03
What is the difference between bank and loose volume?
Bank volume is the soil in its natural state, while loose volume is the expanded volume after excavation, calculated using the swell factor.
