Soil Compaction Control via In-place Stiffness and Modulus
The GeoGauge is an advanced and truly innovative quality control instrument that enables construction of higher quality and lower cost roadways and highways. Pavement components can now be compacted to relevant engineering properties taken directly from design.
Applications
- Quick – Onsite compaction Control
- Useful in compaction control in sub grade, sub base, base & asphalt
- Strength gain of lime, cement, fly ash and polymer stabilized materials
- Field California Bearing Ratio (CBR)
- Highways, Air-strips, Rail Embankment, Earthen dams/ Embankments, Concrete Dams etc.
- Compliments and provides alternative to resilient modulus, Falling Weight Deflectometer, plate load test, dynamic cone penetrometer and other measures of strength, stiffness, modulus and deflection.
Measuring Parameters
- Tested Parameters: Stiffness (3 to 70 MN/m),Young’s Modulus (26 to 610 Mpa)
- Derived Parameters: Field CBR
- Typical Testing Time: 75 secs
- Testing Depth: Up to 9 to 12 inches from the top surface
Salient Features
- Meets ASTM test methods D6758
- Non-nuclear
- Uses D size alkaline batteries, lasting 500 to 1500 measurements, no charging required
- Weighs only 10Kgs
