Abstract
Compaction control is the most significant factor affecting the behaviour of earthwork projects constructed with compacted fine-grained soils. The durability and stability of a structure are related to the achievement of proper soil compaction. Correlating engineering properties with index properties have assumed greater significance in the field of geotechnical engineering. In the present experimental study, an attempt has been made to establish the correlations between index properties of soils with the compaction characteristics of soils having different clay mineralogy altogether for varying energy levels. The compaction characteristics cannot be explained only by liquid limit and plasticity index of the soils but more effectively by plastic limit of soils. It can be concluded that these correlations can be used for predicting the compaction characteristics of soils in field compaction works.
