Modified Proctor Test | Modified Proctor Compaction Test | Heavy Compaction Test

Chapter 67 - Modified Proctor Test | Modified Proctor Compaction Test | Heavy Compaction Test

It was observed that Standard Proctor Test is better suited for smaller projects like construction of small building, garden pathway, small retaining walls etc where loads on the soil are not substantial.
But for projects that need heavy compaction of soil such as construction of highways, dams etc, the Standard Proctor Test does not represent the true compaction characteristics.

For such conditions the Standard Proctor Test has been updated into the Modified Proctor Test.
