Soil compaction is a fundamental requirement for the construction of earth fill for
dams, reservoirs, canal embankments, highways, railways and runways. The
relationship between soil moisture content and compacted dry density is very useful for
deciding construction specifications and quality control of compacted earthfill. While
designing a soil retaining structure, the strength and deformation behavior of soil is
evaluated by testing soil specimen compacted to the density as would be achieved
during construction. The construction quality control is essentially to check the density
of compacted soil achieved in the field, thereby checking its strength.
