Geotechnical properties of undisturbed and compacted amphibolite derived laterite soil
Abstract This study considers the influence of compactive energy on certain geotechnical properties of an amphibolite derived laterite soil with respect to the undisturbed soil. Properties such as void ratio, compression index, coefficient of permeability and cohesion showed improvement with increased compaction energy. Critical pressure and angle of internal friction were more or less constant while the maximum density showed improvement only at the energy of the modified Proctor. The usability of the soil at the various densities is also assesed.
