Information

 

Compactor: This is the compactor used for the test.

 

Expansion-Pressure Device: This is the expansion-pressure device used for the test.

 

Stabilometer: This is the stabilometer used for the test.

 

Calculate R-Value at Specified Exudation Pressure: Check this box to calculate the R-Value at a specified exudation pressure. It will also be calculated at 300 and 400 psi.

 

Exudation Pressure: This is used to specify the exudation pressure at which to calculate the R-Value.

 

Calculate Exudation Moisture: Check this box to calculate the exudation moisture on the next tab.

 

Hydroscopic Moisture: This is the hydroscopic moisture used to calculate the exudation moisture.

 

Evaluate Stability: Check this box to evaluate the stability of the soil or aggregate material.

 

Optimum Moisture: This is the optimum moisture content used to evaluate the stability.

 

Units

 

Length Units: This is used to select the units for length.

 

Mass Units: This is used to select the units for mass.

 

Pressure Units: This is used to select the units for pressure.
