The motivation for this project was based on work by
;
Iowa State University (ISU) researchers at a few recent
;
grading projects that demonstrated embankments were
;
being constructed outside moisture control limits, even
;
though the contractor QC testing and quality assurance
;
(QA) testing showed all work was being performed
;
within the control limits. This finding initiated the need
;
for a more detailed study with testing on several active
;
grading projects across Iowa.
A specification for contractor moisture quality control (QC) in roadway embankment construction has been in use for approximately 10years in Iowa on a
