Abstract

This investigation of the influence of clod on the hydraulic conductivity of compacted clay showed that clod size during soil processing and compaction significantly influenced the compaction curve and the hydraulic conductivity of a highly plastic, compacted clay soil. The compaction curves for soils with initially large and small clods compacted with standard Proctor effort were significantly different. For smaller clods, the compaction curve was much flatter, suggesting less sensitivity to molding water content.
