The test consist of compacting the soil or aggregate to be tested into a standard mold using a standardised compactive energy at several different levels of moisture content. The maximum dry density and optimum moisture content is determined from the results of the test
This automatic machine eliminates laboratories and above all, inconsistent hand compactors. The compactor is complete with automatic counter which can allows the machined make a number of blow according to a requirement. Automatic compaction test will show considerable cost benefits over hand compaction method
