    angle and speed of gyration, axial confinement, and sample size 
    required to most closely approximate field compaction conditions, shear 
    resistance and in-place volumetrics. This instrument will also be used 
    for teaching purposes in the Civil Engineering Department courses on 
    Bituminous Mixtures (CE 5701) and Special Topics in Research (CE 8089).
