Abstract

The objective of the ongoing pooled-fund project is to use DPS to improve density construction leading to longer lasting pavements. In addition, the goal is to reduce the need for destructive methods such as coring in evaluating the in-place density to improve both safety and coverage of the evaluation process. Phase II will include both research and implementation track activities. The second phase of the pooled-fund project will continue to build upon and advance the progress made in Phase I by answering technical and practical questions related to DPS and developing tools and guidance for implementing DPS in the field as a best practice for density measurement.
