<strong>BOMAG</strong> <strong>compaction</strong> <strong>measurement</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>documentation</strong> <strong>systems</strong><br />
<strong>BOMAG</strong> E VIB measuring technology:<br />
Reaching targets. Every time.<br />
<strong>BOMAG</strong> E VIB measuring technology makes it possible to control <strong>compaction</strong> even during the <strong>compaction</strong><br />
process. Surface covering <strong>and</strong> precise.<br />
Quality requirements on earthworks <strong>and</strong> road construction are continually increasing. <strong>The</strong> aim is to<br />
meet quality st<strong>and</strong>ards <strong>and</strong> to optimise the use of <strong>compaction</strong> machinery. With this in mind, <strong>documentation</strong><br />
of <strong>compaction</strong> processes <strong>and</strong> the <strong>compaction</strong> quality achieved are becoming more <strong>and</strong> more<br />
important.<br />
<strong>BOMAG</strong> <strong>compaction</strong> <strong>measurement</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>documentation</strong><br />
<strong>systems</strong> are used for continuous <strong>and</strong><br />
surface covering <strong>compaction</strong> control. <strong>BOMAG</strong><br />
measuring technology is based on the E VIB value.<br />
This is a value that calculates the soil stiffness in<br />
Documentation system<br />
MN/m 2 during the <strong>compaction</strong> process. <strong>The</strong> E VIB<br />
value is a physical measured value that correlates<br />
directly with the plate-loading test used in<br />
earthworks <strong>and</strong> road construction.<br />
Electronics unit<br />
(ESX)<br />
Acceleration<br />
sensors<br />
It expresses the correlation between the ground<br />
contact force <strong>and</strong> the indentation of the roller<br />
drum. By changing the E VIB value, the roller<br />
operator is permanently informed of <strong>compaction</strong><br />
progress.<br />

Overview of the system for surface covering dynamic <strong>compaction</strong><br />
control.<br />
<strong>The</strong> result:<br />
<strong>The</strong> efficiency of <strong>compaction</strong> work is improved,<br />
as unnecessary passes can be prevented, weak<br />
spots discovered in good time, <strong>and</strong> time <strong>and</strong> effort<br />
carrying out inspections can also be reduced. <strong>The</strong><br />
contractor will save time <strong>and</strong> money.<br />

How exactly is the E VIB value created?<br />
<strong>BOMAG</strong> <strong>compaction</strong> measuring <strong>systems</strong> use the<br />
interaction of the acceleration of the vibrating drum<br />
<strong>and</strong> the dynamic stiffness of the soil. In general, the<br />
soil stiffness will increase as <strong>compaction</strong> increases.<br />
If the soil becomes stiffer, the drum acceleration will<br />
also increase.<br />
<strong>The</strong> measuring sensors record this acceleration<br />
<strong>and</strong> from this determine the effective contact force<br />
between the soil <strong>and</strong> drum <strong>and</strong>, at the same time,<br />
the oscillating path of the entire drum. If the contact<br />
force is then laid on top of the oscillating path of the<br />
drum, this results in a loading <strong>and</strong> unloading curve<br />
for every revolution of the eccentric weight in the<br />
drum. <strong>The</strong> surface included in this curve correlates<br />
with the <strong>compaction</strong> energy imparted. <strong>The</strong> E VIB value<br />
arises from the analysis of the load curve, as this<br />
correlates with the stiffness of the soil.<br />
Recording vertical <strong>and</strong> horizontal acceleration.<br />
Unmatched precision<br />
Only <strong>BOMAG</strong> uses two measuring sensors on the<br />
drum to optimise measuring accuracy. <strong>The</strong> measuring<br />
density is also unparalleled: <strong>The</strong> E VIB value is<br />
continuously measured with a measuring density<br />
value of up to 10 cm. This ensures that every weak<br />
spot is detected.<br />

<strong>BOMAG</strong> <strong>compaction</strong> <strong>measurement</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>documentation</strong> <strong>systems</strong><br />
Different indicator <strong>systems</strong><br />
<strong>The</strong>re are various instruments to choose from<br />
when it comes to indicating the E VIB value. <strong>The</strong><br />
<strong>BOMAG</strong> E VIB meter BEM represents the starter<br />
device. In addition to the two acceleration sensors,<br />
the unit includes a distance gauge, an electronic<br />
unit <strong>and</strong> a circular instrument, the E VIB analogue<br />
display, located with the driving instrumentation.<br />
<strong>The</strong> advantages:<br />
n Determination of the E VIB value<br />
n Indication of trend towards a <strong>compaction</strong><br />
increase<br />
n Detection of weak spots <strong>and</strong> inconsistencies.<br />
And modules are available to upgrade to other<br />
measuring system versions.<br />
<strong>BOMAG</strong> E VIB meter BEM with analogue display.<br />
<strong>The</strong> <strong>BOMAG</strong> Terrameter BTM is even more convenient<br />
to use. Instead of an E VIB analogue display,<br />
it has a <strong>BOMAG</strong> Operation Panel (BOP), a convenient<br />
control unit.<br />
Other advantages:<br />
n <strong>The</strong> driver sees a message on the display when<br />
the target value has been reached or if further<br />
<strong>compaction</strong> is no longer possible.<br />
n <strong>The</strong> results are displayed digitally <strong>and</strong> in the<br />
form of bar charts.<br />
n <strong>The</strong> printer can be used to print out line diagrams<br />
<strong>and</strong> bar charts to document coverage of<br />
small <strong>and</strong> medium-sized sites.<br />

<strong>The</strong> E VIB value indicates the soil stiffness <strong>and</strong> evenness of <strong>compaction</strong>.<br />
<strong>The</strong> <strong>compaction</strong> status can be printed out <strong>and</strong> documented as a bar<br />
chart or line diagram using the E VIB value. <strong>The</strong> terrameter indicates<br />
the maximum <strong>compaction</strong> possible.<br />

Technology<br />
<strong>The</strong> complete solution:<br />
BCM 05 <strong>and</strong> BCM 05 positioning.<br />
<strong>The</strong> optional <strong>BOMAG</strong> Compaction Management BCM 05 offers the most convenient solution for documenting<br />
results. Informative <strong>and</strong> detailed measuring records can be created easily for specific sites;<br />
this ensures comprehensive <strong>documentation</strong> complying with the rules <strong>and</strong> regulations* of Surface<br />
Covering dynamic Compaction Control (SCCC).<br />
<strong>The</strong> BCM 05 tablet PC: suitable for<br />
construction sites, user friendly <strong>and</strong><br />
delivers information.<br />
Using <strong>BOMAG</strong> measuring technology,<br />
the operator really has everything<br />
under control while work is in<br />
progress.<br />
<strong>The</strong> <strong>BOMAG</strong> COMPACTION MANAGEMENT BCM 05<br />
is used for large scale projects <strong>and</strong> at all sites<br />
where surface covering dynamic <strong>compaction</strong><br />
control is required or recommended. BCM 05 is<br />
a tablet PC suited to use on construction sites;<br />
it determines, displays <strong>and</strong> saves the E VIB values<br />
of the entire construction site using the BCM 05<br />
mobile software. This means no more hassle with<br />
printing. Compaction can be tracked in real-time,<br />
lane by lane, <strong>and</strong> location by location on the large<br />
display. <strong>The</strong> PC displays the entire surface to be<br />
compacted. <strong>The</strong> measured E VIB values are displayed<br />
as line diagrams <strong>and</strong> colour intervals. <strong>The</strong><br />
colour intervals can be chosen as required, so that<br />
both <strong>compaction</strong> progress <strong>and</strong> weak spots can be<br />
clearly identified during work. With a USB-stick<br />
the data can be transferred to a stationary PC for<br />
analysis <strong>and</strong> <strong>documentation</strong> with the software<br />
product BCM 05 office.<br />
<strong>The</strong> BCM 05 scope of delivery includes:<br />
n Tablet PC with touchscreen<br />
n USB memory stick<br />
n Robust, lockable tablet PC holder<br />
n BCM 05 software<br />
In contrast to the terrameter, which prints out individual documents<br />
on site, the BCM 05 offers the convenience of an analysis of the entire<br />
construction site from one stationary PC.<br />

specified target<br />
n Representation of variations in quality with<br />
interval observation<br />
n Enhances comprehensive measured data<br />
management <strong>and</strong> clear construction site organisation<br />
n Informative <strong>and</strong> detailed measuring records <strong>and</strong><br />
comprehensive <strong>documentation</strong> complying with<br />
the rules <strong>and</strong> regulations of surface covering<br />
dynamic <strong>compaction</strong> control<br />
<strong>The</strong> recording of these measured values is unique<br />
in its detail.<br />
<strong>The</strong> colour display provides:<br />
n High density of measured values: up to 1 measured<br />
value per 10 cm length of rolled track<br />
n Real time display of the <strong>compaction</strong> <strong>and</strong> load<br />
capacity status in the form of diagrams <strong>and</strong><br />
numbers<br />
n Comparison of the current <strong>measurement</strong> curve<br />
with the measured values of the previous pass<br />
n Visual <strong>and</strong> graphic warning when the measured<br />
values deteriorate<br />
n Registration <strong>and</strong> display of local re<strong>compaction</strong><br />
zones or bounce mode<br />

BCM 05 positioning – linking of E VIB measured values<br />
with position data.<br />
BCM 05 positioning links the E VIB measured values with the position data of a differential GPS system.<br />
Documentation becomes even more user friendly: No fields need to be defined in advance <strong>and</strong> the<br />
roller driver does not need to assign his current position to the defined track. After all, the roller<br />
knows itself exactly where it is.<br />

Compaction is completely documented, just like on<br />
a map.<br />
<strong>The</strong> following <strong>systems</strong> are required in order to<br />
use satellite-assisted surface covering dynamic<br />
<strong>compaction</strong> control:<br />
<strong>BOMAG</strong> software is capable of interfacing with<br />
conventional DGPS <strong>systems</strong> with <strong>and</strong> without a<br />
reference station. However, the positioning accuracy<br />
depends on the chosen GPS system. <strong>The</strong> raw<br />
data supplied by the GPS system can be transformed<br />
with the aid of BCM 05 into construction<br />
site coordinates.<br />
For additional orientation, points <strong>and</strong>/or axes can<br />
be easily read into the portrayed structure of the<br />
construction site.<br />

<strong>BOMAG</strong> <strong>compaction</strong> <strong>measurement</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>documentation</strong> <strong>systems</strong><br />
Use of the Starfire iTC system for surface covering <strong>compaction</strong><br />
control ...<br />
... <strong>and</strong> use of GPS receivers with separate antennae <strong>and</strong> reference<br />
stations.<br />
<strong>BOMAG</strong> uses the compact <strong>and</strong> simple to install<br />
Starfire iTC system as the DGPS solution; this<br />
works with a satellite-assisted reference service<br />
to achieve positional accuracy to at least 20 cm.<br />
This system does not require a reference station,<br />
as BCM 05 positioning can also be combined with<br />
any other conventional DGPS <strong>systems</strong>; an existing<br />
infrastructure on site can be used without difficulty.<br />
<strong>The</strong> Starfire iTC system is extremely compact <strong>and</strong><br />
can be installed quickly <strong>and</strong> easily. <strong>The</strong>re is no<br />
need for specialist staff to commission the system.<br />

<strong>BOMAG</strong> measuring technology – also used in asphalt<br />
<strong>compaction</strong>.<br />
<strong>The</strong> E VIB measuring technology is also used for asphalt <strong>compaction</strong>. <strong>The</strong> basis is the self-regulating<br />
ASPHALT MANAGER rollers with integrated E VIB measuring technology <strong>and</strong> temperature sensors. When<br />
the rolling temperature is greater than 100 °C, the stiffness value determined by the roller can usually<br />
be used directly as a reference for <strong>compaction</strong> quality.<br />
In conjunction with GPS applications, the technology<br />
helps the contractor to monitor <strong>and</strong> control<br />
asphalt <strong>compaction</strong> work. During <strong>compaction</strong>, the<br />
calculated E VIB values which are used as a reference<br />
value for <strong>compaction</strong> progress are continu-<br />
ously documented together with the number of<br />
passes, the asphalt temperature, amplitude <strong>and</strong><br />
frequency, <strong>and</strong> all the associated construction site<br />
coordinates.<br />

<strong>BOMAG</strong> <strong>compaction</strong> <strong>measurement</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>documentation</strong> <strong>systems</strong><br />
BCM net – the transparent construction site up<br />
close: Seamless transparency for higher costeffectiveness.<br />
Networking several rollers on site provides an<br />
opportunity to create an overall picture of <strong>compaction</strong><br />
over the entire site. With BCM net, not<br />
only the data from one machine, but data from all<br />
machines involved in the <strong>compaction</strong> work can be<br />
recorded <strong>and</strong> displayed on one screen.<br />
For this, the rollers are equipped with GPS receivers<br />
<strong>and</strong> connected up via a wireless network. <strong>The</strong>y<br />
permanently transmit their positions, the <strong>compaction</strong><br />
results <strong>and</strong> other necessary parameters, such<br />
as the asphalt temperature or speed to the server.<br />
n Support in terms of comprehensive measured<br />
data management – giving clear, cost-effective<br />
organisation of the construction site<br />
n Easy <strong>and</strong> quick to install DGPS solutions that<br />
work independently of reference stations<br />
n Recording <strong>and</strong> <strong>documentation</strong> of data from all<br />
machines involved in the <strong>compaction</strong> process<br />
via BCM net – for more efficiency on construction<br />
site<br />
<strong>BOMAG</strong> <strong>compaction</strong> <strong>measurement</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>documentation</strong><br />
<strong>systems</strong> provide the basis of cost-effective<br />
<strong>compaction</strong>. <strong>The</strong>y provide high, uniform <strong>compaction</strong><br />
quality, save the contractor time, effort <strong>and</strong><br />
money, <strong>and</strong> increase protection against subsequent<br />
claims for remedials.<br />
<strong>The</strong> data is updated every 5 seconds <strong>and</strong> the<br />
server distributes the new „picture“ to all network<br />
users. This enables every roller operator to follow<br />
their own <strong>compaction</strong> progress <strong>and</strong> that of the<br />
other machines.<br />
Overview of the advantages:<br />
n Early detection of weak<br />
spots in the subsoil to<br />
minimisation risks<br />
n Reduction in unnecessary<br />
passes once specified<br />
values have been<br />
reached.<br />
n Reduction in time <strong>and</strong><br />
effort on inspections<br />
n Smooth <strong>documentation</strong><br />
of <strong>compaction</strong> quality<br />
on asphalt construction<br />
<strong>and</strong> earthworks<br />
