Proctor Test PDF

This document summarizes the results of a compaction test conducted according to CML Test 1.9 and BS 1377: Part 4:1990. The test measured the dry density, wet density, and moisture content of a soil sample compacted in a mold with a 152mm diameter and 127mm height. A graph shows the relationship between dry density and moisture content, with the maximum dry density and optimum moisture content indicated. The test was reviewed and approved by the head of the materials laboratory.
