In a standard Proctor compaction, the water content (w) and maximum dry density $(Y_{d m a x})$ are related as:

- 1
  
  $Y_{d m a x}$ is linearly proportional to w
- 2
  
  w is inversely proportional to $Y_{d m a x}$
- 3
  
  $Y_{d m a x}$ corresponds to a unique value of w
- 4
  
  $Y_{d m a x}$ corresponds to $w = (w_{p} + w_{L}) / 2$ where $w_{p}$ and $w_{L}$ are respecitvely plastic and liquid limits
