A SEMINAR ON

Vibratory Soil Compactor

Presented by KARALE VISHAL V. (BE Mech.) Under the guidance of Prof. A. S. Kaboor

Introduction
Soil compaction is defined as the method of mechanically increasing the density of soil. In construction, There are five principle reasons to compact soil: Increases load-bearing capacity Provides stability to fills Reduces settling of soil Improves impermeability Reduces shear

FACTORS AFFECTING COMPACTION IN THE FIELD:

COMPACTIVE EFFORT MOISTURE CONTENT SOIL TYPE LAYER THICKNESS CONTACT PRESSURE NUMBER OF ROLLER PASSES SPEED OF ROLLING

Compaction Equipment
Rammers Vibratory plate

Rollers

Types of compactors:
Static compactor

Pneumatic compactor
