Methods of sampling and testing asphalt, Method 14.1.2: Field density tests — Determination of field density of compacted asphalt using a nuclear surface moisture-density gauge — Backscatter mode

This Standard sets out the method for determining the field density of layers of asphalt using a nuclear surface moisture-density gauge in the backscatter mode of operation. The method is applicable to asphalt layers between 50 mm and 100 mm thick and to asphalts having a nominal maximum size not greater than 40 mm.
