Compaction
Compaction is a process of closely packing the solids in order to increase the density of soil by reducing the air voids under the application of dynamic or mechanical load to improve the engineering properties of soil.

- To reduce the permeability of soil.
- To reduce the compressibility of soil.
- To increase the shear strength of soil.
- To increase the bearing capacity of soil.
