The contractor having a problem on road construction when the relative compaction result show only 85% of sub grade. As consultant you should advise how to solve the problem. Following are some suggestions which may be appropriate. Please suggest the most correct suggestions below to solve the contractor problem. 1. Increase the number of compaction effort II. Add different type of back fillII. III. Increase water content IV. Reduce water content when necessary and more compaction V. Change compaction machine which may increase compaction effort and re compact. O I and V O I, Il and V II, II, IV and V O All above

The soil at a job site can reach a maximum dry unit weight of 115.3 lb/ft^3. The contractor tests the soil after compaction and it has a dry unit weight of 109.5 lb/ft^3. What is the percent compaction of the soil? Type your answer...
After the heavy rain brought by Irene passed over Vermont, the Winnooski River has raised to over 5 feet above its flood elevation. The flood crest is expected to arrive to Montpelier, state capital, in 48 hours. You are an engineer in charge ofcalculating the flood defense by increasing the levee top elevation. Your estimate calls for 5000 CY of compacted material needed before the flood crest arrives. You have two borrow pit options: borrow pit A is located 1 hour away and has 7 Caterpillar 69C trucks with 30.9 CY capacity available. Borrow pit B is located 30 minutes away but has only 3 Caterpillar trucks with the same capacity. Assuming arround the clock work in the next 48 hours calculate which option will allow for completion of the work within the time constraint given. Records on file show the following soil properties at locations A and B: A: Y= 120 pcf, w = 18% B: Y= 125 pcf, w = 12% In order to assure adequate stability of the levee slopes, it will be required to compact…

Discuss the methods used for measuring soil density and compaction in the field.
The degree of compaction of sand in the field is 93.5%. Considering a dry specific weight maximum “γd max” and minimum “γd min” (see Table 1) of this sand determine the dry specific weight in field and its relative compression compactness.
