RE: soil compaction through vibration
If you could be more specific, we might be able to help you better. But in general terms, vibratory compaction equipment will penetrate less than 1 foot unless very large equipement is used in which case 2 to 3 feet might be possible.

I just wanted to know general info.
RE: soil compaction through vibration
Soil dumped out of a truck is about 88% SPDD compaction. With about 3 passes of compaction, relative to type and depth, you will get up to 92% SPDD, 5 passes 95% SPDD, 8 passes 98-100% SPDD.
At optimum moisture, the lower the density the less compactive effort needed.
That has been my experience in the field.
