Throughout this article, a study on the characteristics of the compaction test by the Proctor Method, regulated by ABNT NBR-7182, which is used to verify the degree of soil compaction, will be approached in order to broaden the discussion and raise points that demonstrate the urgent need to make it more accurate, efficient and safe. Through qualitative and quantitative research carried out by the authors of this article, it sought to collect data through a questionnaire for professionals in the field of geotechnics in the “Quadrilátero Ferrífero” region in Minas Gerais. In addition to other relevant data for the topic, it was raised that of the 22 professionals from the participating region, 72.7% of the total belief that the manual compaction test can be manipulated by an operator during the test execution, failing to generate results reliable, thus showing the importance of the proposed theme. In this way, we initially sought to correlate the Compaction Energy formula idealized by Ralph Proctor with Isaac Newton’s Gravitational Potential Energy formula and, through it, present the resizing, which may enable the construction of manual, semi-automatic human propulsion machines (not or making the automated ones that depend on electricity available to the market. In conclusion, from the mathematical calculations, it was possible to evidence the use of Newton’s Gravitational Potential Energy to construct new equipment to carry out this test.
