    This document is a data sheet from the Soil Mechanics Section of the Department of Engineering and Technology at Davao Oriental State College of Science and Technology in the Philippines. It records water content determination tests on soil samples taken from various depths. For each sample, it lists the weight measurements taken including the weight of the can plus wet soil, can plus dry soil, and just the can. It then calculates the water content percentage using these measurements and an average for each depth interval tested. Remarks at the bottom explain the variables and water content calculation formula.
