Investigation in which medium-clay fill was used to complete construction of approach embankments to bridge is described; observations made during placing of fill behind bridge abutments indicated that state of compaction and moisture content of medium-clay fill closely conformed to existing specifications; settlement measurements made on subsoil beneath embankments and on completed road surface after period of 2 yr showed that only very small movement of order of 1/8 in. have occurred within fill material after road was completed.
