Non-nuclear Methods for Compaction Control of Unbound Soil and Granular Layers
A Study of Effective Soil Compaction Control of Granular Soils
Author: Vincent P. Drnevich
Publisher: Purdue University Press
ISBN: 9781622601202
Category : Transportation
Languages : en
Pages : 194
Book Description
Although it is known that impact compaction tests are not appropriate for granular soils, these tests continue to be widely used. Excessive settlements frequently occur in granular soils where specified field compaction is based on Standard Proctor (ASTM D 698; AASHTO T 99) maximum dry unit weights. A laboratory test program evaluated alternative test methods for granular soil compaction control and showed that a Vibrating Hammer method (similar to British Standard BS 1377:1975, Test 14) has great promise for laboratory compaction of these soils.

Non-nuclear Methods for Compaction Control of Unbound Materials

Category : Compacting

Pages : 157
Book Description
"Proper compaction of unbound materials, such as soils, aggregate, and recycled materials, is a critical component in the performance of highway pavements and embankments. The most commonly used device to test for proper compaction is the nuclear density gauge. However, due to the costs associated with regulatory compliance and radiation safety training, there is an increased effort to find acceptable non-nuclear devices. This synthesis documents information on national and international experience with non-nuclear devices and methods for measuring compaction of unbound materials. Information used in this study was gathered through a literature review, a survey of state departments of transportation (DOTs) and Canadian provincial transportation agencies, and interviews with selected state DOTs. Munir Nazzal, Ohio University, Athens, collected and synthesized the information and wrote the report. The members of the topic panel are acknowledged on the preceding page. This synthesis is an immediately useful document that records the practices that were acceptable with the limitations of the knowledge available at the time of its preparation. As progress in research and practice continues, new knowledge will be added to that now at hand."--Preface.
