Abstract: The minimum void ratio of sand-fine mixtures as a function of fines content is an important property to know in geotechnical engineering. In this paper, a mathematical model is proposed to estimate it. It takes into account both the insertion of fines into the granular skeleton of the sand when the size ratio allows it, and the way in which the particles are assembled.
