Exercise 8: Soil Compaction
sites.psu.educurve plots above the zero-air-voids curve. The results obtained are 1.86g/cm^3 for the maximum dry density and 13.6% for the optimum moisture content (Figure 1). Based on the theory, there is a critical point where the soil has maximum dry density. Increasing or decreasing the moisture content from OMC would result in lower dry density.
