The Correct Option is B

Solution and Explanation

Concept: Geotechnical testing is divided into field and laboratory tests to determine physical and mechanical soil properties.

Step 1:
Identify test objectives.

Proctor Test (A): A laboratory test used to determine the relationship between moisture content and dry density to achieve Compaction (IV).
Vane Test (B): An in-situ test used to measure the undrained Shear strength (II) of soft, saturated clays.
Penetration Test (C): Like the Standard Penetration Test (SPT), it correlates blow counts to Bearing capacity (III) and relative density.
Hydrometer Test (D): Used for Grain size analysis (I) of fine-grained soils (silts and clays) through sedimentation.

Step 2:
Final Sequence.
The correct matching is A-IV, B-II, C-III, D-I.
