This Part of BS 1377 describes methods of test for determining characteristics related to the compaction of soils, which can be used as a basis for specifying requirements for soils compacted in the field.
This Part also includes a method for assessing an empirical strength criterion (the CBR value) of a compacted or undisturbed soil used as a sub-grade material for pavement construction.
Reference is made to some of the classification tests described in BS 1377-2.
Reference is made to BS 1377-1 for general requirements that are relevant to all Parts of this standard, and for methods of preliminary preparation of soil for testing.
NOTE The titles of the publications referred to in this standard are listed on the inside back cover.
