FULL STORE
The 3450 gauge includes a Full Store feature, which provides
prompted data entry of measurement conditions after each store.
When this feature is enabled, the gauge prompts the operator for
information required on FHWA projects. This information is stored
in the project with the reading, and can be viewed, printed, or
uploaded to a computer with the project data. There are three types
of data storage based on the gauge operating mode.
In Thin Layer or Asphalt mode, the gauge prompts for asphalt-
related information such as lift thickness and whether the mix is
surface, intermediate, or base.
In Soil mode, the operator is prompted to select prompts for Soil or
Stone. The soil prompts include test types such as embankment,
subgrade, and backfill. The stone prompts include the test types
plain aggregate and cement stone.
The complete listing of Full Store prompts is shown in the
