Laboratory compaction test results for a cohesive soil are given in the following table:

Plot Diagram with labels and sample test labels

Specifications call for a fill dry density of 114 pcf and further require that the fill be compacted at optimum water content for the field compactive effort. For the following field density test results on a fill, explain how you alter the field placement operation:

1. ?_d = 115 pcf ; ? = 12.5 percent

2. ?_d = 112.5 pcf ; ? = 13.5 percent

3. ?_d = 110 pcf ; ? = 14.5 percent

4. ?_d = 111 pcf; ? = 17.3 percent
