Scope

This method is for the rapid determination of the maximum dry density and optimum moisture content of a soil sample using a one-point determination and an individual moisture/density curve or a family of curves. 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 the rounding-off method of ASTM E 29. The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as the standard.
