You can run what is called a one-point test. You need the proctor mold, a hammer, a strike off bar, a portable stove (to burn off the moisture), a sieve, a brass bowl, a scoop, and a balance. You can perform the proctor test as shown in this video on site. It will yield one moisture content and one bulk unit weight. Your state DOT should have typical moisture-density curves. You simply plot your data on the chart they provide.

4:42 the equation might be wrong, the moisture content defined for Geotechnical Engineering has denominator of dry mass not wet mass. Obviously, at 4:42 what will be multiplied with moisture content difference is wet mass.

I think at 3:20, they meant to show the graph of dry density vs moisture content rather than the particle size distribution.

Is it possible to compact sharp sand with standard compaction method in the lab
search on google moisture content soils. several construction material testing outfits sell some kits (Speedy 2000), but are expensive (search Humboldt or Elle combined with the word soil. The agriculture industry has some devices for purpose of crops. good luck!

Best way to remove all the dirt from the mold before weighing is to SPIN IT 👍👍😎😎 The motion flings the dirt of without affecting your soil inside the mold

@@BracaPhoto we do that at my lab, spray the inside of the mold with WD-40, unless the sample is really wet and will slide right out. I usually just cut away the outer edge of the sample after so I don't include any WD-40 in my moisture

where can I get a moisture tester, I own a mini excavator with hydraulic compactor and I would love to have a moisture test and the data sheet that tells me what good moisture levels are for sand, pit run, road gravel, and other mysterious form of soil, i believe the equipment is out there and it wont be the perfect thing but it will give me an idea of how my compaction is working and i will be sure to pass tests I feel bad when I fail a compaction test feels like a waist of time

question? how important is breaking up the clumps when doing the moisture test?
@MartinRodriguez-cu6vl Жыл бұрын
If you're just breaking it up before sticking it in the oven, it helps facilitate the drying process. Bigger chunks usually take longer to dry.

The testing method should be specified before you even start testing, that's not on you. Either get it from the project manager, the engineer, the contractor.

I am not really nitpicking here but doing a proctor in the Lab is different than doing it in the field. I test soils and in the field. It's different when doing a one point in the field than it is on the lab. Rock correction is needed as well Also we have to use a speedy for the moisture content as well. Also it's hard when u have some pissed off contractors city state inspectors watching I the whole time when doing this. Good video but lab and field is different
