Determination of specific gravity in sediments / authors: G.A. Duncan and D.A. St. Jacques.: En13-7/79-11E-PDF
"The specific gravity of sediment is defined as the ratio of the weight of a given volume of sediment to the weight of an equal volume of distilled water at a given temperature (Lambe, 1967). The method used to determine specific gravity in the sedimentology/geotechnical laboratory generally follows that developed by Lambe (1967)"--Introduction.
