The objective of this research is to investigate the factors                    controlling the magnitudes of the lateral earth pressures induced by            compacting soil.  The project will include laboratory tests to                  investigate the effects of compaction method, compactive effort, dry            density, and water content on the magnitudes of compaction induced              earth pressures.  Tests will be conducted in a model test bin and in            compacting soils in layers; the induced lateral pressures  will be              measured.  These tests will provide a means of studying variations in           pressures   depending on the direction of roller travel and will                provide a basis for assessing the effectiveness of available analytical         techniques under carefully controlled conditions.  This effort will             take a fundamental approach to a basic geotechnical engineering process         and will extensively use a new type of instrumentation, the temperature         compensated mercury oedometer.
