Interferences4.1 Electromagnetic force fields such as high-tension powerlines, or large metal objects in close proximity may interferewith the device reading.4.2 The chemical composition of the material being testedmay significantly affect the measurement and adjustments maybe necessary
17、. The device can be calibrated to the specific mixdesign being used in the field.4.3 The test method exhibits spatial bias in that the device ismost sensitive to the density of the material in closest prox-imity to the sensor.4.4 The surface texture of the material being tested maycause lower than a

Precision and B
40、ias49.1 Precision:9.1.1 Precision is based on a field experiment in 2008 thatused six gauges from five manufacturers. Materials includedSuperpave 9.5, 12.5, 19.0, and 37.5 HMA used on a construc-tion project sponsored by the New York DOT. Density variedfrom 123.9 to 156.0 pounds per cubic foot with
41、mean of 137.6and standard deviation 3.089. Each test with a single gauge wasconducted by the same operator, therefore, single-operatorprecision for this statement is also considered to be single-gauge precision if conducted by the same operator.9.1.2 Single Operator PrecisionThe single-operator stan
42、-dard deviation has been found to be 20.50 kgm31.28 poundsper cubic foot.5Therefore, results of two properly conductedtests by the same operator on the same material should notdiffer by more than 57.67 kgm33.6 pounds per cubic foot.59.1.3 Multilaboratory PrecisionThe multilaboratory stan-dard deviat
43、ion has been found to be 23.55 kgm31.47 poundsper cubic foot.5Therefore, results of two properly conductedtests from two different laboratories on the same materialshould not differ by more than 65.68 kgm34.1 pounds percubic foot.59.2 Bias:9.2.1 There is no consensus on the most accurate method tode
44、termine the values of density against which this test can becompared. Accordingly, a statement of method bias cannot bemade.NOTE 6With regards to the Bias statement above, any user may electto conduct a comparison of these gauges related to the laboratorymeasured value from core samples. Gauge measu
45、rements should be takendirectly on the location of the pavement where cores will be cut.10.
