Résumé

The authors should be commended for their interesting experimental work on sandy soils presented in Belkhatir et al. (2010) [1]. They used the inter-granular void ratio, $e_{s}$ , to interpret the experimental results and developed some useful correlations with $e_{s}$ . However, the Note fails to address the further development of $e_{s}$ over a decade to a more generalized form of equivalent granular void ratio, $e^{⁎}$ . This comment aims at adding missing literature on $e^{⁎}$ and presents a re-interpretation of the experimental data based on $e^{⁎}$ . The advantages of using $e^{⁎}$ over $e_{s}$ are significant and explained in subsequent sections.
