From the first example, the compaction factor = 1.237 based on 15% swell and -7% shrink for this material. Convert 200 cubic feet to cubic yards = 200/27 = 7.4 cubic yards 7.4 cubic yards * 1.237 = 9.15 cubic yards. This 9.15 cubic yards can then be used as an "ESTIMATED" amount of material needed for this job. And that is an "ESTIMATED Amount"!

A compacted subbase keeps workers out of the mud. Energy Efficient Building Network The only layer that is absolutely required is the subgrade—you have to have ground to place a slab on ground on top of. If the natural soil is relatively clean and compactable, then you can put a slab right on top of it without any extra layers.

Compaction Methods* Dumped - Soil is dumped into place with no compactive effort. Sluicing - Soil is washed into place with a high velocity stream of water. Ponding or flooding - Water is added after soil is placed and until free water stands on the surface. Jetting - A hose or other device, using a high velocity stream of water, is worked

The broken stone bed is placed on an uncompacted earthen subgrade and is used to temporarily store the runoff that moves vertically through the porous asphalt or concrete into the bed. The high rate of infiltration through the porous paving is achieved through the elimination of the finer aggregates that are typically used in conventional paving.

First thing you'll want to understand is the type of soil you'll be compacting: 1) Cohesive Soil - Clays and clay silts which are hard to break up once dried. They bind in a way that better holds the shape and consistency of the soil. 2) Granular Soils - Mostly gravels and sand with little to no clay.

The specific gravity of the crushed stone sand is 2.81 whereas the specific gravity of the natural sand is 2.40.Therefore crushed stone sand has higher specific gravity as compared to natural sand which results in higher density. Due to the higher density, higher degree of compaction is achieved. Workability

Once the surface of the excavated area is sufficiently compacted, sub-base material may be added. Typically, a limestone or sandstone sub-base should be placed in 4- to 8-inch lifts with compaction occurring after each lift. Proper compaction should be achieved in three to four passes per lift with a plate compactor.

The higher maximum dry density for crushed rock is an indication of better compaction, which results in better particle contact and eventually better shear performance of the crushed rock source. The higher CBR value of the crushed rock source can be also attributed to its lower LA abrasion value.

Compaction itself is basically the action of applying a downward force for consolidation, taking larger and smaller materials and letting them fall and work their way into place. There is a risk of over compaction as you could, especially with larger gravel, break the granules down into smaller pieces and destroying the composition of that gravel.
