Kenttätiivistystestit
Kenttätiivistystestit, often translated as field compaction tests, are a group of procedures used to determine the degree of compaction achieved in a soil layer during construction. Compaction is the process of increasing the density of a soil by mechanically reducing its air voids. Achieving proper compaction is crucial for the stability and performance of various civil engineering structures, such as roads, embankments, and foundations. These tests are performed directly on the construction site to monitor and control the quality of the compaction work.
The primary goal of field compaction tests is to ensure that the in-situ density of the soil
Several methods exist for performing field compaction tests. One common technique involves excavating a small volume
