clay needs to use a sheeps foot
small areas jumping jack
smooth roller not here with clay
I have placed thousands of yards of clay liner in feedlot runoff ponds, tested to pass compaction. You can easily pack clay with wheeled equipment, a sheepsfoot is just another tool.
passing "inspection" that is usually 95% or better !!
All those bridges that have speed bumps at the ends are all approved
but need to be compacted to the native compaction might be 110 % !!!!
