How do I do a compaction test at field with aggregate size ranges from 20 mm -30 mm?
In a project, it is suggested to do ground improvement with coarse aggregate only(size ranging from 20-30 mm) but without using any sand. In the design, it is mentioned that 95% compaction to be achieved. Due to bigger particle size and in absence of sand, there will be natural voids. So would you pls help, by providing any suggestion how to do the test or alternate test method.
