Summary of Test Method4.1 The test apparatus is placed on the material to be testedeither in a mold or on naturally occurring or compacted soil inthe field. The hammer is raised to a set height and allowed tofree fall. The instr

27、umentation of the test apparatus displays avalue in tens of gravities (g) of the peak deceleration of thehammers impact as recorded by an accelerometer fitted to thetop of the hammer body. A total of four blows of the hammerare applied on the same spot to determine the IV for each testperformed.4.2

28、A lighter hammer of 0.5 kg (1.1 lbm) or 2.25 kg (5 lbm)may be used for softer conditions or fragile materials instead ofthe 4.5 kg (10 lbm) standard hammer to determine the IV.When used the resulting value is termed the Light Impact Value(IV/L) for the 0.5 kg (1.1 lbm) hammer or Medium ImpactValue (

29、IV/M) for the 2.25 kg (5 lbm) hammer.4.3 Alarger, heavier hammer of 10 kg (22 lbm) or 20 kg (44lbm) may be used instead of the 4.5 kg (10 lbm) standardhammer to determine the IV for harder conditions or to testthrough a larger zone both horizontally and vertically. Whenused, the resulting value is t

30、ermed the Heavy Medium HeavyImpact Value (IV/HMH) for the 10 kg (22 lbm) hammer orHeavy Impact Value (IV/H) for the 20 kg (44 lbm) hammer.5. Significance and Use5.1 Impact Value, as determined using the standard 4.5 kg(10 lbm) hammer, has direct application to design and con-struction of pavements a

31、nd a general application to earthworkscompaction control and evaluation of strength characteristicsof a wide range of materials, such as soils, soil aggregates,stabilized soil and recreational turf. Impact Value is one of theproperties used to evaluate the strength of a layer of soil up toabout 150

32、mm (6 in.) in thickness and by inference to indicatethe compaction condition of this layer. Impact Value reflectsand responds to changes in physical characteristics that influ-ence strength. It is a dynamic force penetration property andmay be used to set a strength parameter.5.2 This test method pr

33、ovides immediate results in terms ofIV and may be used for the process control of pavement orearthfill activities where the avoidance of delays is importantand where there is a need to determine variability whenstatistically based quality assurance procedures are being used.5.3 This test method does

34、 not provide results directly as apercentage of compaction but rather as a strength index valuefrom which compaction may be inferred for the particularmoisture conditions. From observations, strength either re-mains constant along the dry side of the compaction curve orelse reaches a peak and declin

35、es rapidly with increase in watercontent slightly dry of optimum water content. This is gener-ally between 95 and 98 % maximum dry density (see Fig. 1 andFig. 2). An as-compacted target strength in terms of IV may bedesignated from laboratory testing or field trials as a strength toachieve in the fi

36、eld as the result of a compaction process for aD5874 162desired density and water content. If testing is performed aftercompaction when conditions are such that the water contenthas changed from the critical value, determination of the actualwater content by laboratory testing enables the field dens

37、ity tobe inferred from regression equations using IV, density andwater content.NOTE 2Impact Value may be used as a means to improve thecompaction process by giving instant feedback on roller efficiency,uniformity, confirming the achievement of the target strength, and byinference the achieved densit

38、y. When inferring density from IV, however,it should be considered as only indicative of density. Where strictacceptance on a density ratio basis is required, test methods that measuredensity directly shall be used.5.4 This test method may be used to monitor strengthchanges during a compaction proce

39、ss or over time due toseasonal, environmental or traffic changes.NOTE 3For in-place soil strength evaluation where there may be a dryand hard surface layer (crust), testing both the crust and the underlyinglayer may be required.5.5 The standard instrument is based on a 4.5 kg (10 lbm)compaction hamm

40、er using a 450 mm (18 in.) drop height. Thehammer has been equipped with an accelerometer and instru-mented using a peak hold electronic circuit to read the peakdeceleration on impact. The circuitry is filtered electronicallyto remove unwanted frequencies and the peak deceleration isdisplayed in uni

41、ts of ten gravities (g) with the output belowunits of ten gravities truncated.5.6 The peak deceleration on which IV is derived representsthe area under the deceleration versus time curve which formost soils may be assumed as half a sinusoid. Applying doubleintegration provides first the time velocit

42、y relationship andsecond, the time penetration relationship. As force is alsodirectly related to deceleration, the IV therefore, representsboth stress and penetration and may be taken as a directmeasurement of stiffness or strength (see Fig. 3).5.7 Impact Value may be correlated with an unsoaked CBR

43、.5.8 Impact Value may be expressed as a hammer modulus,analogous with elastic modulus or deformation modulus.5.9 The light hammer uses the same accelerometer andinstrumentation as the standard hammer. The smaller mass of0.5 kg (1.1 lbm) results in more sensitivity for lower strengthmaterials compare

44、d to the standard mass; that is, the zero to100 IV scale is expanded with this lighter hammer mass andprovides more definition on softer materials. To avoidconfusion, the IV of the light hammer is notated as IV/L.5.10 Light Impact Value has applications for recreation turfhardness evaluation, where

45、the condition of the surface affectsball bounce characteristics, the performance or injury potentialto participants, and where more sensitivity compared to thestandard hammer is required or an imprint left by the 4.5 kg (10lbm) hammer or other test methods is undesirable, such as ona golf putting gr
