6. Remove the collar and trim off the excess soil with a trimming knife by clicking on the mould. Add a weighing machine from the apparatus menu and weigh the mould with the compacted soil by clicking on it.

7. Take a representative sample from the mould and determine its water content. Use the following <a href='https://sd-iiith.vlabs.ac.in/exp/water-content/'>link</a> to learn more about water content determination.

8. Observe the values obtained for different trials in the table. We obtain wet density using the formula: Wet Density = Mass of Wet Soil / Volume of Soil. We obtain the dry density using the formula: Dry Density = Wet Density / (1 + Water Content). Also observe the corresponding graph obtained and derive the optimum moisture content and the maximum dry density values by taking the readings at the peak.
