• Abstract:
  LTRC’s Geotechnical and Asphalt groups will be conducting two separate field and laboratory evaluations. The Geotechnical group will evaluate field densities of soil layers and the asphalt group will evaluate field densities on asphalt pavement layers. There are two overall objectives of this research proposal: (1) to conduct a validation study to compare the new Troxler and TransTech gauges against the original nuclear moisture density gauge and (2) to evaluate the nuclear and non/low-nuclear gauge as QA devices for nondestructive density. The project will utilize intensive field tests and core samples to determine their effectiveness benefits, and implementation potential for QA/QC applications within DOTD.
