Compaction of an embankment is carried out in 500 mm thick layers. The rammer used for compaction has a foot area of 0.05 m² and the energy imparted in every drop of rammer is 400 N-m. Assuming 50% more energy in each pass over the compacted area due to overlap, the number of passes required develop equivalent to Indian Standard light compaction for each layer would be compactive energy
