This Standard sets out the method for the following:(a) The calibration of the density system of a nuclear surface moisture-density gauge using standard blocks. The calibration equation, so derived, defines the relationship between the density count ratio and field density for direct transmission measurement (see Notes 1 and 2).(b) The partial calibration of the moisture system of a nuclear surface moisture-density gauge using standard blocks. The calibration equation, so derived, defines the slope of the moisture calibration equation.The intercept of the moisture calibration equation for each particular material is determined from actual measurements of field moisture content, as detailed in AS 1289.5.8.1.
