Abstract:

Properly applying water during compaction of ; roadway base and subgrade materials is ; important for achieving adequate compaction. ; Construction specifications determine the ; required water content, and field measurement ; historically takes place with a nuclear density ; gauge. However, with the regulatory ; requirements of using nuclear sources, and ; continued interest in stiffness or modulus-based ; compaction acceptance, researchers need to ; identify techniques to rapidly measure moisture ; content on base and subgrades without using a ; nuclear source.
