| USGA Summary Points: | Sand mix (containing peat) was less vulnerable to packing than sand alone. Results suggest that optimal compaction could be achieved by controlling the moisture at packing between 0.05 to 0.07 g g-1 Large variations in Ksat were found in soil columns constructed by the 1-layer approach, while the 2- and 3- layer packed soil columns were rather consistent with acceptable differences among technicians. For practical purposes, the 2-layer approach is suggested for loading the sample in the packing soil column. |
