Hi,
The required material for the construction of one motorway embankment is csa 0-300mm? Fines percent limit is set at 10% max.
The uniformity coefficient required is cu>9.
Large diameter sieves do not exist on site nor at any relevant geotech laboratory.
Expert supervisor had to control the quality of built-in material and the solution applied was to use one software for digital image processing in order to determine the grain size distribution curve. Then, the cu could be determined.
Does anybody have experience with the usage of image processing software and reliability of obtained results?
Comparison of sieved data with image processing results would be highly appreciated!
Thank you
