  • Page 39: Offset

    OFFSET To improve the accuracy of the PaveTracker Plus for a specific material of known density, the unit can be calibrated using a density offset. A density offset is determined by taking in-place measurements using the PaveTracker Plus, then comparing the measured density to an alternative density, as determined using a nuclear gauge reading or road core extraction and analysis.
  • Page 40 Plus software. For example, if the density as determined by a core analysis is 150 pcf, and the density measured by PaveTracker Plus is 146 pcf, the density offset is +4 pcf. NOTE For best results, repeat the above procedure to determine the density offset at each of several in-place locations.
