Field Compaction
The document discusses soil compaction for construction projects. It defines soil compaction as mechanically increasing the density of soil to make the ground surface suitable for development like buildings and roads. There are four main types of compaction effort: vibration, impact, kneading, and pressure. Proper compaction is important as it increases load-bearing capacity, prevents settling, and provides stability. The document also discusses different soil types and their properties, as well as basic principles and methods for field compaction.
