The Soil Compaction Test
Soil compaction test is a vital test that determines the strength, density and compatibility of soil when disturbed. The process is the mechanism where the soil retains its mechanical stress and density. Generally, soil is a made of small particle and small spaces covered by water and air. When soil is subjected to stress, the…
