Previous pageReturn to chapter overviewNext page

The following calculations are used in this test:

 

Corrected Density

 

ρc = ρw + F

 

where,

ρc        = Corrected wet density

ρw        = Wet density

F        = Conversion factor

 

 

Compaction

 

Compaction (%) = 100 * ρc / ρtmd

 

where,

ρtmd        = Test maximum density
