This lecture presents a brief of compaction highlighting the various aspects of the compaction process in detail.

Consolidation is a process by which soils decrease in volume. According to Karl von Terzaghi "consolidation is any process which involves a decrease in water content of saturated soil without replacement of water by air." ... When this occurs in a soil that is saturated with water, water will be squeezed out of the soil
