Correlation between Pavement Quality
Indicator 301(PQI) and Conventional Method
(Coring Method)

Background Of Study

Currently, most paving contractors determine
density of asphalt pavements by the collection
of core samples. It takes more time to know
the result of quality pavement.
By using PQI 301, the contractors just need
the in-situ test and take just around 3 second
to know the result about quality of asphalt
A study is to evaluate and compare between
nonnuclear density devices, the Pavement
Quality Indicator (PQI) Model 301 and coring
method.
This study needs testing and analyses of
certain projects to determine average
coefficients for the relationships between
uncorrected gauge measurements and core
densities.

Problem Of Statement

During construction of hot-mix asphalt
pavements, density measurements are taken
at various stages to monitor the effect of the
rollers and ensure proper compaction.
The most commonly used method for
measuring density is coring. The coring
method requires licensing, training, and
specialized storage due to the samples within
the equipment.
Objective Of The Study

To compare the density between this 2
method(cores and PQI)
To compare the tests result with the JKR
requirement.
To obtain the optimum density and
percentage of compaction with comparison
JKR requirement.

Scope Of Study

First, a literature search was conducted to assess
what information was currently available on this
topic.
The data collected on the test sections by each
process and the participating PQI equipment and
then evaluated in a statistical analysis.
The main focus of the data collected on the test
sections was the pavement condition information
and the quality of the data reading, as these were
the main functions performed by the PQI
equipment.

Pavement Quality Indicators (PQI 301)
PQI 301 is a Pavement
Quality Indicator designed
and built to take quick,
accurate measurements of
hot mix asphalt density.
PQI 301 takes accurate
density readings in three
seconds.


Operation Of The PQI

The Pavement Quality Indicator is designed with
several useful modes of operation.
Each mode of operation is accessed through the
keypad controls.
The number, letter and arrow keys have several
functions. The immediate function is shown by
the text in the display panel.
Pressing a key causes the PQI to beep indicating
that the keystroke has been entered.

Display Panel PQI 301


Functions:
1)Density

2)%Compaction

3)Temperature Sensing

4) Moisture Sensing


Operational Specifications PQI 301

Segregation: Identifies variations in material density
associated with segregation.
Continuous: Instantaneous density, temperature and
moisture readings.
Average: Averages five (5) readings and stores data
including date and time. Stores 99 records.
Single: Allows the operator to collect data then
manually record data off the material under test.
Reading time three (3) seconds.
Coring Method
The standard test procedure is used for collecting
samples of pavement.
Samples of pavement collected using the coring
method may be used to evaluate various
characteristics of pavement for construction
quality control testing, quality assurance testing
and product acceptance testing.
Core samples may also be used for research
testing purposes.

Coring Method(cont)
The standard core sample diameter for this
test procedure will be 101.6 mm or 152.4 mm.
Generally, the maximum thickness of
pavement to be sampled will be 250 mm.

Calculation

For calculation section, it refers to coring
sample and doing analysis in laboratory and
calculates all the collected data.
In this study, we use CDM/MARSHALL TEST
calculation to determine the density of coring
samples.
Also use Bulk Specific Gravity (ASTM D2726) and
Maximum Theoretical Specific Gravity (ASTM D2041)


Expected Outcome

This expected outcome can conclude by this way:

The correlation by PQIs method and coring
method by referring raw data collection and
analysis in laboratory.
Comparison between density reading for PQIs
and density that we will get by laboratory
process.
Also comparison the percentage compaction by
both methods that will achieve the objective of
this study limitations.
