Based on the New Zealand standard the specimen height should be 125- 127 mm. My question is that what if the resultant height of the sample after the compaction was more than or less than this amount. I asked it because there is a height correction in Marshal compaction method of Asphalt materials. I thought there should be something for the compaction Unbound Materials.
Vibration compaction tests include vibrating table test and vibrating hammer test.each method will give different results though dry unit weight and water contents are the same for a given granular soil.
However it has been suggested that impact factor be used and its result must be considered.
There is no index for correction for vibratory compaction.

I donot know of any correction index but i think can be developed but may really devevloped by Transportation Research organisations because it will be capital intensive and will require sufficient data
