We are doing compaction of soil bed as sub-grade of road. The degree of compaction required is 95%. We follow Indian Standard. The test results are as follows:
Max dry density - 1.86 gm/cc
Optimum Moisture content - 11.9%
The compaction achieved with moisture content are 99.39 (10.5%); 98.6 (4.5%), 94.79 (7.0%).
What is the interpretation of these results? Are they acceptable as qualified? |
