This scientific article presents the results of experimental studies to study changes in the strength
characteristics of vibration-compacted moistened loess soils over time. As field experiments have shown, the
strength indicators of compacted moistened loess soils using vibratory rollers increase over time after vibration.
This has a positive effect on increasing the density and seismic resistance of soils. If the soil moisture exceeds
the optimal value, then vibration will not contribute to an increase in the strength characteristics (density) of
the soil, but on the contrary will lead to a decrease in the adhesion force and the angle of internal friction. The
greatest vibration effect is achieved when soil moisture corresponds to the optimal value.
