the why?
Traditional methods of compaction testing are fundamentally flawed. Our geotechnical engineers grew increasingly frustrated with the industry's reliance on outdated testing.
Limited Data Coverage: Traditional testing covers less than 1% of the project site, potentially missing critical problem areas.
Questionable Accuracy: Relies on the inherently flawed Proctor system, and other outdated equipment, which often fails to capture the true state of soil compaction.
High Costs: Utilizes staff and expensive and difficult-to-maintain equipment, such as nuclear density gauges, which add significant overhead.
Labour Intensive: Requires extensive resources to provide continuous geotechnical monitoring, driving up projects costs and complexity.
Faced with these challenges, and unwilling to stake their professional integrity on guesswork, our engineers designed Compactica. This solution empowers geotechnical professionals with a tool that integrates advanced technology to provide accurate, comprehensive, and cost-effective compaction testing.

Data Driven Insights: Compactica collects data over every inch of the compaction area and provides the operator with data driven compaction insights.
Ensured Compliance: Compactica's "one touch" reporting automatically sends a report including the compaction map to all parties.
how it works
to take the guess work out of earth works requires industry-leading expertise in compaction technologies
1. Lab Testing: Begin with standard Sieve and Proctor tests to establish a baseline vibration range for each soil type. Results are then entered into Compactica’s software to tailor the system’s parameters to your specific project needs.
2. Install Hardware on Roller: Compactica provides an easy-to-follow installation guide via a video walkthrough. If needed, real-time support is available through a video call to ensure the vibration monitors are correctly set up on the roller.
3. Initial Onsite Calibration: Perform an onsite calibration with guidance from the Compactica software. This step ensures the system is perfectly tuned to the site-specific conditions, enhancing the accuracy of compaction data.
4. Software Monitors Compaction: As construction progresses, the software continuously monitors soil compaction, providing real-time, geotechnical-based recommendations to the operator. This includes a dynamic compaction heat map that highlights both deficiencies and approved areas.
5. Updates and Alerts: The system sends regular updates and alerts about the compaction progress and any non-compliances to engineers and project managers, keeping all key stakeholders informed and enabling timely interventions.
6. Final Reporting: Compactica generates a detailed compaction map and report that outlines all critical compaction details, providing a comprehensive and compliant documentation of the work performed.
