"This method of test is intended for determining the relationship between the moisture content and density of soils when compacted in a given mold of a given size with a 4.54-kg (10-lb) rammer dropped from a height of 457 mm (18 in.). Four alternate procedures are provided as follows: ? Method A??A 101.60-mm (4-in.) mold: Soil material passing a 4.75-mm (No. 4) sieve Sections 4 and 5. ? Method B??A 152.40-mm (6-in.) mold: Soil material passing a 4.75-mm (No. 4) sieve Sections 6 and 7. ? Method C??A 101.60-mm (4-in.) mold: Soil material passing a 19.0-mm (0.75-in.) sieve Sections 8 and 9. ? Method D??A 152.40-mm (6-in.) mold: Soil material passing a 19.0-mm (0.75-in.) sieve Sections 10 and 11. The method to be used should be indicated in the specifications for the material being tested. If no method is specified@ the provisions of Method A shall govern. This test method applies to soil mixtures that have 40 percent or less retained on the 4.75-mm (No. 4) sieve@ when Method A or B is used and 30 percent or less retained on the 19.0-mm (0.75-in.) sieve@ when Method C or D is used. Material retained on these sieves shall be defined as oversize particles (coarse particles). If the test specimen contains oversized particles@ dry density and moisture corrections must be made in accordance with Annex A1. If the specified oversized particle maximum percentage is exceeded@ other methods of compaction control must be used. Note 1??One method for the design and control of the compaction of such soils is to use a test fill to determine the required degree of compaction and a method to obtain that compaction. Then use a method specification to control the compaction by specifying the type and size of compaction equipment@ the lift thickness@ and the number of passes. The following applies to all specified limits in this standard: For the purposes of determining conformance with these specifications@ an observed value or a calculated value shall be rounded off ""to the nearest unit'' in the last right-hand place of figures used in expressing the limiting value@ in accordance with ASTM E29. The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as the standard."
