Abstract/Artist Statement

A sliding hammer device will serve an important role in assisting field technician in creating holes meeting the specifications for CalTran Test Method 231 (CTM 231) as well as regulations set by other state programs when testing for relative compaction. CTM 231 is used to test for relative compaction on untreated and treated soil and aggregates determining the in-place wet density, moisture content and relative compaction.
