Proper weight of mix for Around 4500 - 5000g. Determined through the mix
gyratory compactor design process to achieve the height of 115 +/- 5mm
Required amount of mix 2000-2200g total or 1000-1100 grams individually for
for Gmm (rice) samples? two flasks
Required amount of mix Depends on the mix. SP & FC 5, 9.5, 12.5 are 1500g. SP
for ignition samples? 19 is 2000g
Asphalt burns off at what 538°C (1000°F)
temp
The furnace must be 650°C (1200°F)
capable of what
temperature
Flasks should be 77 +/ 2°F of water and once a month or >0.4 grams of
calibrated at what dry weight
temperature and how
often?

The vacuum and 15 +/- 2minutes
oscillating test for GMM
then continues for how
long when it reaches
target pressure
Gyratory compaction an internal angle of 1.16 +/- .02 degrees
angle is
Ram pressure for gyratory 600 +/- 18 kpA perpendicular to the axis
compaction is
RPM the gyratory 30 +/- .5 gyrations a minute
compactor operates at
Gyratory (GMB) and Rice compaction temp +/- 9 for 1 hour +/- 5minutes and mix
(GMM) samples must be should be within +/-20° of compaction temp
conditioned at what temp
and for how long
The mold and base plate 30 to 60 minutes
for the gyratory
compactor should be in
the oven for how long
Target specific height for 115.0mm +/- 5mm
pills
How do you determine Weigh the material every 15 minutes when it has lost
aggregate is dry? less than 0.5 grams is it considered dry
Bulk specific gravity (pill) 4 +/- 1 minute
water weight is
determined after
When the pill is removed 5 seconds with a top and bot flip and then a roll roll
