    This document shows the relationship between dry density, water content, and compaction for soil samples. Dry density increases from 1.419 gm/cm3 to a maximum of 1.447 gm/cm3 as water content increases from 10.33% to 12.93%, then decreases to 1.426 gm/cm3 as water content further increases to 14.96%. The optimal water content for maximum dry density is between 12-13%.
