EFFECT OF COMPACTION ENERGY ON ENGINEERING CHARACTERICTICS OF COMPACTED COHESIVE SOIL

In civil engineering work, soils play an important role. Bearing capacity of the soil should be able to withstand the ultimate design load from structure. There are several methods to improve the strength of the soil. Conventional method used for soil improvement is compaction. Compaction is t...
