Field Evaluation of the Lane-Wells Road Logger
The Road Logger, a truck-mounted nuclear gage for determining soil moisture and density, was evaluated for its potential use in compaction control. This equipment produces a continuous chart giving the soil moisture and density as the truck is driven over the compacted embankment. The data from the Road Logger was comparable in accuracy to the sand volume test. There was some sensitivity of the Road Logger to the surface condition in embankment materials and no surface effect on subgrade, base and similar materials. The indications are that there exists a definite potential for the use of the Road Logger in compaction control. The economic advantage of the use of the Road Logger is questionable on small contracts, but there may be some advantage when used on several large contracts. As the Road Logger obtains a large number of tests rapidly a new approach to the utilization of this data is presented. It is proposed to try the Road Logger on a construction project as the means of acceptance of compaction of earth materials. (Author)
