Описание: Natural Moisture Content Determination Test | Mar-El Tube

In this video, we demonstrate the Natural Moisture Content Determination Test, one of the most essential soil tests in road and construction projects. The test helps to measure the amount of water present in a soil sample, which directly affects the soil’s strength, compaction, and stability.

You’ll see step-by-step how our field technicians collect, weigh, and dry soil samples from a road construction site, using standard laboratory procedures. The supervisor monitors and records readings from the balance and ensures accuracy throughout the process.

👉 Test Procedure Includes:

1. Collecting the soil sample from the prepared test hole


2. Weighing the wet soil in a moisture container


3. Drying the sample using kerosene or oven method until the moisture is completely removed


4. Re-weighing to obtain dry soil weight


5. Calculating the natural moisture content (%)



💡 This test is vital in highway, embankment, and foundation engineering, ensuring the soil meets design and safety standards before compaction and pavement work.

🎥 Watch till the end to understand every step clearly and see how professionals conduct this test on-site under a mega road project.
