The invention relates to an impact compactor (10) and to a method and system of obtaining an indication of the soil strength of soil (100) by using an impact compactor (10). The impact compactor (10) includes a chassis 5 structure (12), at least one wheel (14) supportively mounted on the chassis structure (12), and at least one impact drum (16) which is displaceable relative to the chassis structure (12). The method includes travelling with the impact compactor (10) over a soil surface (100) while the drum (16) is in a raised position in which it is spaced from the soil surface (100) and 10 measuring, by using a measuring arrangement (20) which is connected to or forms part of the impact compactor (10), a rut depth (54) of a rut in the soil surface (100) which is formed by the wheel (14) as the impact compactor (10) travels over the soil surface (100). |
