Gyratory compaction is considered to be one of the best methods of laboratory compaction for the assessment of compactibility and the manufacture of test specimens. Compaction is achieved by the application of a vertical stress (normally 600KPa) via end platens to a known mass ofmore...
This instrument is built to SHRP & US Federation Highway Administration specifications. It produces asphalt specimens that best predict long-term pavement performance. The SHRP Superpaveā¢ program uses specimen height from each gyration during the consolidation cycle as the basimore...
