In-situ density is widely used to control the field compaction of earthworks and pavement layers. There are a number of methods available for measuring in-situ density but only the two common methods are considered here. These are the core-cutter method and the sand replacement method. 6.2 Sand Replacement Method 6.2.1 Introduction.

Determination of field density using the sand replacement method involves three steps. The first step involves calibration of a sand-pouring cylinder. The soil density is measured in the second step and then the water content and dry density is measured in the third step. The various stages of the sand replacement method are shown in Fig. 9.26.

Aug 04, 2019· Introduction. Sand replacement test method is used to determine the field density or in-place density of earth embankments, road fills, sub-grade, sub-base or any of compacted material. This method serves as the base upon which one can accept the density of a compacted material to a specified magnitude or to a percentage of maximum unit dry density determined as proctor.
