1. The compaction requirement fpr clay soils in traditional applications is 90 to 95 % of maximum drydensity at compaction water contents on both sides of optimum, whereas landfil1 clay linerspecifications normally require 90 to 95% of maximum dry density at compaction water contents onlyon the wet side of optimum water content.
