Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Compaction characteristics were made of soils containing gravel in amounts varying from 0 to 50 percent by weight of the total material. The purpose was to obtain data for studying the compaction characteristics of gravelly soils. Three methods are given for calculating the density of the fine fraction in a gravelly soil. A method for controlling the compaction of gravelly soils is suggested. This method involves the use of a correction factor. (Author).

This book was released on 2007-05-01 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although it is known that impact compaction tests are not appropriate for granular soils, these tests continue to be widely used. Excessive settlements frequently occur in granular soils where specified field compaction is based on Standard Proctor (ASTM D 698; AASHTO T 99) maximum dry unit weights. A laboratory test program evaluated alternative test methods for granular soil compaction control and showed that a Vibrating Hammer method (similar to British Standard BS 1377:1975, Test 14) has great promise for laboratory compaction of these soils.

Download or read book Compaction Characteristics of Non Gravel and Gravelly Soils Using a Small Compaction Apparatus written by Avirut Chinkulkijniwat and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 15 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The standard Proctor test has been widely used and accepted for characterizing soil compatibility for field compaction control. This paper presents a time- and cost-effective method to predict standard Proctor compaction characteristics of non-gravel and gravelly soils using a proposed small apparatus. This small apparatus is similar to the standard Proctor apparatus and easily introduced into soil mechanics laboratory. A comparison of the compaction characteristics of non-gravel soils measured from the proposed small apparatus and from the standard Proctor apparatus shows that this small apparatus can be used as an alternative to the standard Proctor apparatus and regarded as a practical tool for non-gravel soils. For gravelly soils, gravel content mainly controls compaction energy transmitted to the fine fraction and hence its compaction characteristics. A relationship between the generalized optimum water content of the fine fraction in the gravelly soil and the gravel content is established. This relationship leads to an effective method of predicting standard Proctor compaction characteristics of gravelly soils compacted in standard molds using compaction results from the proposed small apparatus. Comparisons between the predicted and the measured compaction characteristics are in very good agreement.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As part of ES 521-A, 'Effect of Maximum Particle Size, Triaxial Compression and Compaction Tests, ' compaction tests were performed on a gravelly material with cohesive binder to determine the effect of large-size particles on maximum dry density and optimum water content and to obtain data for use in preparing the triaxial specimens. The effect of mold diameter and the effect of scalping both with and without replacement for oversize material were also investigated.
