How Important Is Density Measurement to Your Construction Projects?

Ensure Your Density with

Electric Non-Nuclear Gauges

Having a quality control plan for your construction projects that includes in-place density measurement is a critical step in ensuring the safety, durability and longevity of the project.

Density gauges have been available for decades to help monitor and improve the quality of compaction on construction projects but they were usually nuclear density gauges which are costly to own and operate and come with very restrictive licensing and safety requirements.

Counties that wish to evolve and embrace the technologies and advancements available to help them complete projects in more efficient and profitable ways are looking to alternative, more environmentally preferable, technologies.

The TransTech Systems electrical impedance density gauges were designed to eliminate the safety, transport, storage and operation issues associated with nuclear technology. Introducing a non-nuclear density gauge into your construction quality control process can save you money and help to produce longer-lasting, more sustainable projects.

NON-NUCLEAR DENSITY MEASUREMENT IS A NON-INVASIVE, RELIABLE, QUICK METHOD TO MEASURE IN-PLACE DENSITY SUITABLE FOR PROJECTS IN THE 21st CENTURY.

Using non-nuclear density gauges on your construction projects means you have immediate information on the density of the material (soil or asphalt) as it is being compacted. This gives you confidence that the specified percentage relative compaction or percentage of air voids is being achieved and if it is not, then corrective action can be taken right away to avoid future problems.

TransTech Systems PQI technology is also considered an environmentally preferable technology, which is a technology whose use is intended to mitigate or reverse the effects of human activity on the environment.

In addition to the environmental benefits, the PQI 380 and SDG 200 can bring tangible technical and commercial benefits, whether you are working on a large-scale road project or a new municipal library or parking lot. First and foremost are the safety benefits associated with eliminating nuclear density technology and replacing it with a viable alternative.

Whether you use nuclear density gauges now or want to improve the Quality Control of your construction processes, the introduction of environmentally preferable, safe and easy-to-use non-nuclear density gauges can go a long way to supporting your county both commercially and technically.
