The EDGe quality assurance / quality control (QA/QC) system is lightweight, easy to use, and nuclear free. The EDGe consists of two independent units, one for use in the lab and one for field use, which work together with the use the EDGe Gauge app to ensure precise and accurate measurements. The EDGe provides a direct correlation between the Proctor test data of a representative aggregate/soil sample in the lab and readings of the same material in the field. The lab unit provides you with the tools to take readings directly from six- inch Proctor molds, while performing standard or modified Proctor tests. The field unit is lightweight and comes with a ruggedized field case for easy transport and storage. Both units are nuclear free, which eliminates the need for radiation safety compliance regimens and transportation restric- tions. The EDGe is simple to use. The Advantages of Using the EDGe Are: •Complies with AASHTO T399 and is an enhancement of ASTM D7698 that includes a laboratory aggregate calibration procedure •Nuclear-free device •Accurate and repeatable results that correlate to either ASTM D1557 or ASTM D698 standard Proctor tests •Does not require highly trained or licensed technicians •Does not require special handling for shipping or regulatory compliance for hazardous materials •Easy-to-learn and easy-to-use with its step-by-step menu •Lightweight and easily transportable •Eliminates costs associated with nuclear gauges EDGe Gauge Software Features: •Download job data •Save and share customized reports in PDF format •Operate both the Lab and Field Unit •Provide the Field Unit with Proctor Data •Time/Date, GPS stamps for each test •Generate a location map EDGe Gauge App The EDGe App is available free from the Microsoft App Store. This app allows you to operate both the Lab and Field units of the EDGe, as well as provides the field unit with the lab Proctor data. In the field, the app will record dry density, wet density, percent moisture content, relative compaction, date; time, GPS coordinates and generate a location map. This data is routinely used for construction QA/QC certification reporting. The app can generate the reports in a PDF format, which can be saved or shared with others.

The EDGe lab unit provides you with the tools to take readings directly from six-inch Proctor molds, while performing standard or modified Proctor tests. During the laboratory test, the EDGe lab-sensor and a Windows 11 laptop or tablet are used to collect and manage the physical and electrical data during the Proctor test. The software generates a Proctor curve that dis- plays the maximum dry density at the calculated optimum moisture content and is saved and typically printed for client reports. The empirically derived correlations relate the electrical and physical properties of the aggregate or soil that is scheduled for placement and compaction on construction project sites, such as road construction or other shallow foundation. The physical and electrical data from the Proctor test is saved on the laboratory laptop computer. This data can then be transferred to a ruggedized field Windows 11 tablet by USB stick, a cloud service, or via wireless connection for use with the EDGe field equipment for quality assurance/quality control (QA/QC) testing and construction quality certification. Proctor Curve Proctor Attributes EDGe Field Unit - H-6500F.3F The EDGe Field Unit is a portable, battery-powered instrument capable of being used anywhere without the concerns and regulations associated with nuclear devices. It uses a lightweight, ruggedized field case for easy transport and storage. Just grab the case and you're off to your testing site. During the field quality assurance/quality control testing, the EDGe field-sen- sor and a ruggedized Windows 11 tablet or computer manages the project data. The EDGe field hardware is used along with the EDGe field sensor and a tablet to test the density and moisture of the construction materials. In the field, the EDGe measures the electrical properties of the aggregate and cal- culates physical properties by utilizing the established relationship of the electrical and physical characteristics from the Proctor calibration test of the same aggregate performed in the laboratory. Field tests take a few minutes to perform, and the material properties are displayed in real-time, as well as being saved for reports. The EDGe field reports provide the user and/or cli- ent with quality assurance/quality control data that includes the compacted material dry density, wet density, the percent moisture content, relative com- paction, date, time, GPS coordinates and a location map. The client reports can include additional project information such as the project name and num- ber, the EDGe field sensor’s unique identification number, the EDGe opera- tor’s name, the company name, and other information in he remarks section, such weather conditions, if needed.

Features: •Long piston travel to accommodate setup of reaction loading system •Double-delivery hand pump for fast approach in setup with reaction loading system •High-precision dial gauges •Heavy-duty, rigid measuring bridge Plate Bearing Tester, 100kNHD-4600 Plate Bearing Tester, 200kNHD-4601 Plate Bearing Tester, 500kNHD-4602 Ship wt. 70lbs (31.7kg) Plate Bearing Plate Set ASTM D1195, D1196 ASTM plate set includes: 6", 12", 18" 24" and 30" (152, 305, 457, 610, 762mm) steel plates with eye bolts for transporting and placement of plates with a steel rod. Plate Bearing Plate SetHD-4605 Ship wt. 65lbs (29.4kg) Static, Plate Load Tester DIN 18134; BS1377 The Static Plate Load Test can be utilized in earth- works and foundation engineering, as well as road construction in order to determine load set- tlement lines and by this to evaluate the deforma- bility and the load capacity of the soil. When using the static load tester to evaluate a soil layer, the circular load plate is repeatedly loaded and relieved by means of a load device, a hydraulic pump and pneumatic cylinder. This load is applied to the plate in 6 to 8 equal loading steps. Settlement of the plate is measured by the tester consisting of a carrier frame with a sensing arm and dial gauge. As a counterbalance, a heavy- weight vehicle is used. The indentation of the load plate into the soil, gen- erated with every load step, is indicated via the dial gauge. The settlement of every load step and the corresponding mean normal stress below the load plate appear as test values. Subsequent to the last load step the relief and a second loading similar to the first loading takes place. For the test evaluation these values are shown in a corre- sponding diagram as load settlement lines. The modulus of deformation Ev is determined from the load settlement line of the first load (Ev1) and the second load (Ev2). By comparing the ini- tial deformation from Ev1 and the subsequent deformation of Ev2 provides an indication of the compaction attained. The test results and the load settlement lines can be read with the HD-4139.3F Plate Load tester directly on the display and can be printed out immediately at the site via thermal printer or be reviewed later in the office on a PC.

It is an excellent tool for identifying construction anomalies that would otherwise go undetected during construction where only density or per- cent compaction measurements were used. By measuring stiffness, the GeoGauge can reveal and thus help reduce variabilities in layer prop- erties, which density measurements may miss, thus allowing corrective actions to be taken during construction to ensure that the highest quality base and subgrade are achieved despite varia- tions in materials used. The GeoGauge is the perfect companion instru- ment for density measuring devices such as nuclear gauges and the electrical density gauge. Density measuring devices can be used to ensure that proper compaction is achieved and the GeoGauge can be used to verify that the stiffness/ modulus values assumed in the design specifica- tions of new or rehabilitated pavement structures are met. Compacting and monitoring pavement layers directly to design requirements of structural layer stiffness or material modulus in addition to percent compaction during the construction pro- cess establishes the means to effectively control structural uniformity, strength and deflection, as well as enabling the monitoring and control of the construction quality of various materials. This leads to better smoothness and longer lasting pavement surfaces at lower cost. The GeoGauge works by applying a vibrating force at 25 specific frequencies, which produce small deflections in the material. The resulting displacement is measured by the GeoGauge and displayed as stiffness determined by the ratio of the force to deflection. The GeoGauge produces stress and strain levels common for pavement, bedding and foundation applications. In addition, Young’s and shear modulus can be determined from GeoGauge measurements if a Poisson’s ratio is assumed. This dynamic technology used by the GeoGauge simulates real in-use conditions. This factor allows the GeoGauge to directly measure in-place engineering properties during the con- struction process. The GeoGauge supports and directly links the in-place engineering properties of compacted materials with Mechanistic-Empir- ical Design for effective QC/QA. Successful control of compaction creates a quality functional struc- ture with the desired engineering properties for the application and life intended. Applications include subgrade, sub-base, base, monitoring the strength gain of lime, cement, fly- ash and polymer stabilized materials, monitoring the re-compaction of underground utility back- fills to previous properties matching surrounding undisturbed materials, monitoring the compac- tion of asphalt and cold in-place recycling to peak properties to prevent wasted effort and damag- ing over-compaction.
