What are the most common compaction methods?

The most common compaction methods include:

• Vibration Compaction: This method uses mechanical equipment like vibrating rollers or plate compactors to apply force to the soil and compress it. Vibrating rollers are effective for granular soils, while static rollers are more suitable for cohesive soils.
• Impact Compaction: Impact compaction equipment, such as rammers, applies force through repeated blows. They are ideal for cohesive soils and dense soils.
• Pressure Compaction: This method involves applying static pressure to the soil through heavy equipment. It is useful in compacting dense soils.
