2、 the case of revision,the year of last revision.A number in parentheses indicates the year of lastreapproval.A superscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope*1.1 This test method covers the procedure for the determi-nation of the number of drops requ
3、ired for a dynamic conepenetrometer with a 2.3-kg 5-lbm drop hammer falling508 mm 20 in.to penetrate a certain depth in compactedbackfill.1.2 The device is used in the compaction verification offine-and coarse-grained soils,granular materials,and weakstabilized or modified material used in subgrade,
4、base layers,and backfill compaction in confined cuts and trenches atshallow depth.1.3 The test method is not applicable to highly stabilizedand cemented materials or granular materials containing a largepercentage of aggregates greater than 37 mm 1.5 in.1.4 The method is dependent upon knowing the f
5、ield watercontent and the user having performed calibration tests todetermine cone penetration resistance of various compactionlevels and water contents.1.5 UnitsThe values stated in either SI units or inch-pound units are to be regarded separately as standard.Thevalues stated in each system are not
6、 necessarily exact equiva-lents;therefore,to ensure conformance with the standard,eachsystem shall be used independently of the other,and valuesfrom the two systems shall not be combined.Within the text ofthis standard,SI units appear first followed by the inch-poundor other non-SI units in brackets
7、.Reporting of test results inunits other than SI shall not be regarded as nonconformancewith this standard.1.6 It is common practice in the engineering profession toconcurrently use pounds to represent both a unit of mass lbmand a force lbf.This implicitly combines two separatesystems of units;that
8、is,the absolute system and the gravita-tional system.This standard has been written using theabsolute system of units when dealing with the inch-poundsystem.In this system,the pound lbf represents a unit of force(weight).However,the use of balances or scales recordingpounds of mass lbm or the readin
9、g of density in lbm/ft3shallnot be regarded as a nonconformance with this standard.1.7 All observed and calculated values shall conform to theguidelines for significant digits and rounding established inPractice D6026.1.8 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns,if any,ass
