QUESTIONS
What is the primary purpose of soil-compaction
testing?
When performing a compaction test on a sandy
soil, (a) what mold should you use and (b) how
many tamper blows per layer are required?
What is the overall objective of density testing?
In the sand-displacement method of density
testing, the sand is calibrated to determine its
bulk density. Why must you do this before each
test?

the probable cause?
When a concrete mix contains an excessive
amount of silt or clay, what surface defect may
occur when the concrete is placed?
As related to aggregate used in concrete, define
the term surface moisture.
What is the primary reason for adding an
air-entraining agent to a concrete mix?
