Comparative study on standard static packing pressure (SSPP) and standard proctor laboratory compaction methods / Doris Asmani Mat Yusof

The most recognizable development of compaction test is known as the Standard Proctor Test, which is used to estimate the density value of soils. However, the laboratory concept produced by Proctor (1933) has a few imperfections in determining the value of Maximum Dry Density (MDD) and Optimum Moist...
