Download or read book Suggested Method of Test for Rapid Compaction Control written by JW. Hilf and published by . This book was released on 1970 with total page 14 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The field density test, ASTM Method D 2167, Test for Density of Soil in Place by the Rubber-Balloon Method,3 or ASTM Method D 1556, Test for Density of Soil in Place by the SandCone Method,3 determines the dry density and the water content of the compacted fill. For control purposes, these values must be compared with the laboratory maximum dry density and the optimum water content. The rapid control procedure described herein yields the exact percentage of laboratory maximum dry density and a very close approximation of the difference between optimum water content and fill water content of a field density sample, without requiring determinations of water contents.4 Thus, compaction control can be effected within 1 h from the time the field test is made. Only one water content, the fill water content, is measured, and after it is available (usually the following day) the values of field dry density, cylinder dry density at fill water content, laboratory maximum dry density, and optimum water content are determined for record purpose.

Download or read book Rapid Test Methods for Field Control of Highway Construction written by John D. Antrim and published by National Academy Press. This book was released on 1970 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research was conducted to determine the state of the art in the development, need, and use of rapid test methods. The first phase comprises a literature survey of current practices in quality control and acceptance testing, along with a study using statistical methods to assess the time limits for rapid tests. The second phase is concerned with the development and evaluation of new rapid test methods or principles to select those worthy of further investigation. thirty-eight state highway departments participated in the study, and interviews were conducted when appropriate. The second phase of the study applied to rapid test methods for asphalt content determination, compaction control, gradation of several types of aggregate, density of base course materials and soils, and moisture content. The results of all tests are appended.

This book was released on 2000 with total page 345 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Annotation Presents 22 papers, from the July 1999 symposium, written on the use of various standardized methods for specifying and controlling the compaction of soil for engineered constructed earth fills. Perspectives include the historical background, current state-of-the- art practices, case histories of challenging situations, concerns regarding appropriate design parameters for compaction control, and new methods to evaluate soil compaction and related qualities.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Soils, rocks and concrete are the principal materials a civil engineer encounters in practice. This book deals with the material analogies, their implications in property characterization, giving attention to similar as well as dissimilar methods in respect of each of these three materials. It provides an integrated, systematic approach for realistic assessment of engineering properties of soils, rocks and concrete. Geotechnical engineers, civil engineers and materials scientists will be interested in this volume.

Download or read book Soil Improvement and Ground Modification Methods written by Peter G. Nicholson and published by Butterworth-Heinemann. This book was released on 2014-08-29 with total page 474 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written by an author with more than 25 years of field and academic experience, Soil Improvement and Ground Modification Methods explains ground improvement technologies for converting marginal soil into soil that will support all types of structures. Soil improvement is the alteration of any property of a soil to improve its engineering performance. Some sort of soil improvement must happen on every construction site. This combined with rapid urbanization and the industrial growth presents a huge dilemma to providing a solid structure at a competitive price. The perfect guide for new or practicing engineers, this reference covers projects involving soil stabilization and soil admixtures, including utilization of industrial waste and by-products, commercially available soil admixtures, conventional soil improvement techniques, and state-of-the-art testing methods. - Conventional soil improvement techniques and state-of-the-art testing methods - Methods for mitigating or removing the risk of liquefaction in the event of major vibrations - Structural elements for stabilization of new or existing construction industrial waste/by-products, commercially available soil - Innovative techniques for drainage, filtration, dewatering, stabilization of waste, and contaminant control and removal
