    This document contains data from a series of experiments measuring the water content and dry density of soil samples. The samples were compacted into molds and weighed to determine bulk density and water content. Dry density was then calculated for each sample. A graph was made plotting dry density against water content, showing the compaction curve and optimum moisture content based on the maximum dry density line.
