Abstract: By conducting compaction test with three different compaction standards, the compaction properties of a typical soil were studied. Three compaction standards have the same total compaction energy per unit volume but with different single compaction work. The compaction curve and change of the density of soil sample were obtained by measuring thickness, moisture content, density and dry density of each layer. Finally, the effect of the compaction energy on the result of compaction test was obtained.

Key words: Compaction Energy, Compaction Curve, Density
