DETERMINATION OF IN – PLACE SOIL DENSITY
07.28.18.
(Sandcone Method) TESTANA

Project : Jalan.

Location : JIIPE, Manyar, Gresik.

Client : PT. Swadaya Graha.

Test : In-place soil density with Sandcone method, ASTM D-1556.

Material description : Limestone.

Date of testing : July 25, 2018.

Tested by : Slt. & Shk.

Conclusion :

 Sandcone test results conducted are summarized as follows :

No. of Test 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
RC Value, % 126 114 102 130 107 117 125 111 107 121

Compaction test using standard proctor over a material sample (Limestone) was conducted and
presented in our report # ER.SG.04/ DM.07.05/ 2018, which dry max value for the material was 1.56
t/m³, with optimum moisture (wc opt) = 17 %.

 Calculation results of sandcone test and location of testing points that were pointed and known by the
clien are given in appendices A.1.. During the tests, client representative and quality control officers
observed the in situ testings.
