Extremely low - 0.65 - 0.68.
Very Low - 0.75.
Low - 0.83 - 0.85.
Medium - 0.90 - 0.92.
High - 0.95.
Very Low - 0.75.

Higher compaction factor implies higher workability.
A mix with good workability compacts easily.
A mix with good workability compacts easily.

CF = 0.85 low workability.
CF = 0.92 medium workability.
CF = 0.95 high workability.
CF = 0.92 medium workability.
CF = 0.95 high workability.

wp = wt of partially compacted concrete and wf = wt of fully compacted concrete.

If the compaction factor value is 0.95, then the workability will be high.
