1. OGL – It stands for original ground level. There are some tests perform for this layer-
Lab. test Sieve analysis - (gradation test ) Proctor test - MDD OMC Liquid limit & plastic limit Free swelling test
Site test- FDD test (Field dry test) Degree of compaction = core density /marshall density
= 95%
2. Embankment- an artificial slope made of earth and/or stones: thickness of every layer 200 mm.
Lab. test Sieve analysis - (gradation test ) Proctor test - MDD OMC Liquid limit & plastic limit Free swelling test
Site test- FDD test (Field dry test) Degree of compaction = core density /marshall
density = 97%
3. Subgrade- Combination of sand , crushed stone and bricks
