    The document contains data from a soil compaction experiment including the mass of empty and full sample tins, dry mass of soil samples, water content percentages, wet and dry densities. A compaction curve is presented with dry density on the y-axis and water content on the x-axis, showing a peak dry density between 15-17% water content.
