Field Validation of Intelligent Compaction Monitoring Technology for Unbound Materials

Abstract

To improve upon the traditional approaches of process control and spot tests, intelligent compaction may provide real-time compaction results with 100 percent test coverage. This study investigated compaction meter value (CMV), also known as Caterpillar compaction value (CCV), and machine drive power (MDP) from Caterpillar rollers, and kB stiffness from an Ammann roller.
