EVALUATION OF A ONE-POINT COMPACTION TEST FOR MISSOURI SOILS. STUDY 76-1

A family of curves for use with a one-point compaction test was developed from over 500 AASHTO T-99, Method C laboratory moisture-density relations tests. The family of curves is considered applicable to all Missouri soils, except those defined as coarse grained or organic, within a maximum dry density range of 88-120 pcf. Accuracy of field test procedures and methods of compaction control were related to laboratory results.
