Proctor Compaction Test
DISCUSSION The maximum dry density in g/cm 3 is to be reported to the nearest 0.01 and the optimum moisture content is to be reported to the nearest 0.5. The graph between γ d v/s w (%) is plotted and the maximum dry unit weight of compaction, γ d(max) is determined. The moisture content which is optimum is also determined corresponding to γ d(max). The dry densities …

Earthquake Resistant Buildings
Earthquake causes ground motions in a random fashion, both horizontally and vertically in all directions from the epicenter. As a result, the structures found in the ground vibrate, inducing inertial forces on them. It is therefore essential to ensure stability, strength, and serviceability with acceptable levels of safety by suitable design and detailing. Due to...
