Evaluation of Non-Nuclear Methods for Compaction Quality Control

A major component of this research effort will be to identify a method which is not only accurate, but a method that can be easily utilized by field personnel. A review of available technologies will be conducted to determine the availability of additional methods for compaction control. This current research effort will focus on the subgrade and unbound base construction quality control.
