A REVIEW OF METHODS FOR MEASURING WATER CONTENT OF HIGHWAY COMPONENTS IN PLACE
A DISCUSSION OF THE KINDS OF WATER THAT MAY BE PRESENT IN POROUS MATERIALS, AND THEIR IMPORTANCE TO VARIOUS PHYSICAL PROPERTIES, IS FOLLOWED BY A DESCRIPTION OF SEVERAL INSTRUMENTS SUGGESTED FOR MEASURING WATER CONTENT. THE PRINCIPLE OF EACH METHOD OF MEASUREMENT IS OUTLINED AND SOME FACTORS OF IMPORTANCE IN THE APPLICATION OF THE METHODS TO HIGHWAY MATERIALS ARE MENTIONED. FURTHER INFORMATION ON DETAILS OF THE INSTRUMENTS AND THEIR USE MAY BE FOUND IN THE REFERENCES CITED IN THE TEXT. /AUTHOR/
