1. Soil that has been mechanically compressed or densified to reduce void spaces and increase bearing capacity, commonly used in construction and civil engineering projects.
The foundation requires compacted soil to support the structural load.
A fundação requer solo comprimido para suportar a carga estrutural.
2. Earth or ground material that has undergone consolidation through compaction techniques such as rolling, tamping, or vibration.
Engineers tested the compacted soil density before approving construction.
