1.2.4 Depth of Measurement

The depth of measurement defined as that depth above which 95% of

measurement occurs. The balance of (5%) is determined by material below

stated depth. This is an important parameter of a Backscatter type gauge

since a deeper depth of measurement reduces the error caused by surface

voids.

1.2.5 Units of Measurement

Where "density" and "moisture content" are used in the SI system of

measurement, the absolute units of kilograms per cubic meter are utilized.

Conversions to the US Customary system have been made using pounds

per cubic foot (pcf). This is a gravitational system of measurement by

multiplying by 0.06243. Conversion to the SI gravitational system may be

made by multiplying by 9.807 to obtain kilonewtons per cubic meter. It is

common practice to refer to these units in the gravitational system as "unit

weights" and to those units in the absolute system as "densities".
