08 - NULCEAR METHOD BS 1377 Part 9 1990 - Test 2.5 Rev. 9 (10.12.2020)

This laboratory test report summarizes soil testing using nuclear methods on an embankment fill layer for a project in Qatar. Ten tests were conducted at 54+228M coordinates to determine moisture content, dry density, and compaction percentage. All tests met the QCS 2010 specification with an average moisture content of 9.8%, dry density of 2.03 Mg/m3, and compaction of 99.5%. The report provides equipment details and calibration information used for the nuclear method testing.
