    This document discusses best practices for soil compaction. It begins by defining compaction as densifying material by applying external forces to move particles closer together. Vibration improves compaction by starting from the bottom up. Different compactor types are classified by weight. Best practices include using vibration for bottom-up compaction and adjusting frequency and amplitude for soil type. Intelligent compaction systems provide complete coverage and help achieve uniform compaction without over-compaction. The document emphasizes the importance of proper compaction techniques for long-term stability of structures.

    What is compaction

    Volvo Construction Equipment


    Sales Support - India
    Compaction Densifying the material
    by application of external forces

    During compaction material


    particles to move in relation to each
    other to occupy a smaller space

    Most cost effective method to overcome


    internal friction and cohesion
    Higher in-place density

    Why Compact

    Compaction is necessary for the long-term stability


    of back-fills, bases, embankments or pavement layers.
    Increase load bearing capacity
    Improve mechanical stability of material
    Improve resistance to permanent deformation
    (settlement)
    Decrease moisture penetration (permeability)

    Effects of vibrations , amplitudes &
    frequency
    Very basic on vibration
    In static roller compaction starts from the top
    In Vibratory roller the compaction starts from the bottom

    Vibratory frequency

    Frequency is the number of drum


    impacts
    - number of rotations of the
    eccentric mass per second.

    Amplitude Vertical distance of drum Travel caused
    by motion of eccentric weight inside the drum

    DUAL AMPLITUDE

    Classification of compactors
    Classification Popular Weight class ( Ton )

    Single Drum 5 , 10 , 11, 12 , 15 , 16 , 18, 20

    Double Drum 2 , 3 ,8 ,10 ,12 , 18

    Pneumatic Tyre Roller 12 , 22, 24

    Best Practices in Compaction

    Volvo Construction Equipment


    Sales Support - India
    Best Practices - 1

    Mandatory use of Vibration For bottom up compaction


    Right frequency setting for given soil
    Right Amplitude setting for given Asphalt layer
    Infinitely variable frequency for compactors
    permits wide range of material types thus applications
    Optimum pavement temp
    > 90 deg C

    Best Practices - 2

    Use of PTR
    Closes microscopic surface irregularities & cracks
    If not used , water seepage into wearing course
    Operator safety ROPS canopy & Safety belt must for compactors
    Effect of higher weight class of asphalt compactors
    Comparative production study of 8 Ton Vs 10 Ton Asphalt compactor
    study was done
    10 Ton machine is 66% more productive than 8 Ton machine
    Test Result

    Intelligent compaction system
    Intelligent Compaction System (ICS) is a state of the
    art technology in Compaction
    Helps to achieve more uniform and optimal
    compaction result
    Complete coverage of compaction evaluation
    No danger of over compaction
    Below the target pass count poor compaction
    Above the target pass count low productivity
    Important to ensure good pass coverage
    Missed areas = poor compaction
