Could anyone provide proposed values of sand Young modulus?

12 December 2016 0 6K Report

Could anyone provide proposed values of sand Young modulus with respect to depth and relative density? For example, Poulos suggested Es = (6–8)z (in MPa) for very dense sand. Any other references would be useful.
