Deep soil compaction guide
Use this guide to make the project discussion more precise.
Deep soil compaction is a project decision based on ground information, treatment objective, access and available equipment.
This guide structures the route from a search question to a practical CMG RFQ.

Guide contents
Questions a technical buyer should resolve before selection.
Compare methods
Impact rolling, hydraulic impact and other project-selected routes should be reviewed against the site.
Complete working system
Power unit, damping, operating space, support equipment and monitoring should be planned together.
Verify
Use the project acceptance route rather than machine activity as final evidence.
Evidence boundary
A useful guide is clear about what it does not prove.
CMG uses this resource to organise a project conversation. It does not replace site investigation, geotechnical design, equipment documentation or the project acceptance specification.
- Do not promise a depth from equipment type alone.
- Do not treat monitoring records as automatic acceptance.
- Review changed ground conditions before continuing.
Buyer checklist
Prepare these inputs before sending an RFQ.
- Material and moisture condition
- Treatment objective and work area
- Access, turning space and gradient
- Available power or carrier equipment
- Acceptance and documentation route
Decision record
Turn the research question into a reviewable equipment brief.
Use the following record as a handover between procurement, site engineering and the equipment supplier. Empty fields are signals to investigate, not assumptions to fill with a generic machine claim.
Inputs to evidence

Further questions for the project team.
How should deep soil compaction be planned?
Start with ground information, objective, work area, access and acceptance route.
Which CMG equipment may fit?
Impact roller or hydraulic compaction equipment can be considered after project review.
Can a machine prove the required depth was achieved?
No. Project inspection or testing determines acceptance.
What should be included in the RFQ?
Material, objective, area, access, equipment available and target programme.
