10、on of applicable law.TS-1a T 233-3 AASHTO Note 1The volume-measuring device is not needed if the suspension apparatus with holder (Section 3.2) and water bath (Section 3.3) is used. 3.5. OvenAn oven, stove, or other suitable equipment for drying soil samples for moisture content determination. 3.6.

11、ContainersContainers for moisture content samples, made of metal or other suitable material, and with close-fitting lids to prevent loss of moisture prior to or during mass determinations. Note 2The moisture content may also be determined in accordance with T 217. 3.7. Coating MaterialParaffin and a

12、 kettle or other container suitable for melting paraffin and dipping samples. 4. SAMPLING 4.1. Obtain a sample of the soil or stabilized soil by marking the area from which the desired sample is to be cut and digging the soil or stabilized soil from around it with a sharp tool, such as a trowel, spa

13、tula, knife, or small spade. Exercise care in digging around the sample to prevent disturbance of the soil structure. Sample the depth of the layer for which the density is desired. The minimum size of the untrimmed sample should be slightly greater than shown in Table 2, so as to provide for final

Other suitable methods of obtaining the undisturbed sample include drilling with a coring device and cutting with a diamond or carborundum saw. 5. PROCEDURE 5.1. After removal of the undisturbed sample, take a representative mois

16、ture sample from the wall of the hole or from the trimmings obtained in cutting the undisturbed sample, place in a container, determine the mass to the nearest 0.1 g, dry to constant mass, and determine the moisture content. The minimum size of the moisture content sample, based on the maximum parti

17、cle size, is given in Table 2. 5.2. Trim any loose material from the undisturbed sample and determine the mass of the sample to the nearest 1.0 g. The minimum sample volume, after trimming, is given in Table 2. 5.3. Immerse the undisturbed sample in melted paraffin, being careful that the sample is

18、completely coated. Allow the paraffin coating to cool, and then determine the mass of the coated sample to the nearest 1.0 g. The gain in mass represents the mass of paraffin and the volume of the coating is calculated using the density of paraffin. 2015 by the American Association of State Highway

19、and Transportation Officials.All rights reserved. Duplication is a violation of applicable law.TS-1a T 233-4 AASHTO 5.4. The volume of the paraffin-coated sample in water shall be determined by one of the following methods: 5.4.1. Determine the mass of the paraffin-coated sample submerged in the wat

20、er bath described in Section 3.3 and record the mass to the nearest 1.0 g. Determine the volume of the sample in accordance with Section 6.2. 5.4.2. Fill the volume measuring device (Figure 1) with water above the overflow. Permit the excess water to drain. Immerse the coated sample and determine th

21、e mass of the displaced water to the nearest 1.0 g. Determine the volume of the sample in accordance with Section 6.2. Note 3Kerosene or another suitable liquid may be used instead of water in the water bath (Section 3.3) to avoid the necessity for (1) coating the undisturbed sample with paraffin (S

22、ection 5.3) prior to immersion (Section 5.4) and (2) making a correction for the volume of the paraffin coating. 6. CALCULATIONS 6.1. Calculate the moisture content as follows: 100ABwBC= (1) where: w = percentage of moisture in the sample, based on dry mass of soil; A = mass of container and wet soi

23、l; B = mass of container and dry soil; and C = mass of container. 6.2. Calculate the in-place density (dry unit mass), D, of the soil, in kg/m3, as follows: pFEID= (2) mmFG HJDD= = (3) V JI= (4) ( )10001100wDDw=+(5) For determining D in lb/ft3, use: ( )62.431100wDDw=+(6) 2015 by the American Associa
