Steel wheel 3/4-0 sandy AB?
If it is "sloppy", it's possible the voids are completely filled with water, and no method of compaction would work. Is the water above optimum and do you have a curve for it?- bcallagan

Grading for sheet flow of stormwater
Sorry to get in so late: 1% could be sufficient depending on the grading concept...if it's a large plane not broken up very much and the contractor has a good way to control the equipment (laser level, etc), I go down to 1% , but not below. I almost never go over 4% in commercial shopping...- bcallagan
