Abstract
The paper discusses the parameters of non-cohesive soils’ compaction and methods of their determination and the relationships between them. For sands and coarse-grained soils there are presented the relationship between the following parameters: maximum dry density of soil from compaction test (ρds) and optimum moisture (wopt) – standard and modified Proctor method, uniformity coefficient (CU), grain diameter (d10), maximum grain diameter (dmax) and weighted average grain diameter (dśr.waż.), minimum and maximum dry density of soil (ρdmin and ρdmax).
