Abstract:

METHODS TO PRODUCE AND MEASURE COMPACTION EFFECTS ARE DISCUSSED; LABORATORY AND FIELD EXPERIMENTS HAVE BEEN PERFORMED, AND STATIC AND DYNAMIC COMPACTION EFFICIENCIES COMPARED. THE RESULTS INDICATE THAT FOR CERTAIN SOILS, IN PARTICULAR SOILS USED OFTEN AS HIGHWAY SUBBASES, DYNAMIC COMPACTION CAN PRODUCE HIGHER DENSITIES AND REACH DEEPER STRATA THAN STATIC COMPACTION. /AUTHOR/
