Effect of fine content on compaction characteristics of sand
Normally sandy soils are used as fill material in construction and their engineering properties can be improved by compaction. Generally, study on compaction concentrates on the energy of compactive effort and water content. However, study of the effect of fine content in sandy soils on compaction c...

| Summary: | Normally sandy soils are used as fill material in construction and their engineering properties can be improved by compaction. Generally, study on compaction concentrates on the energy of compactive effort and water content. However, study of the effect of fine content in sandy soils on compaction characteristics seems to be limited. The present study deals with two riverbed sand and one quarry sand sample collected from different location of Sarawak, to investigate the effect of fine content on the compaction characteristics, |
