| |style="background:white smoke;"|[AASHTO T 84-2013], [AASHTO T 85-2014] Specific Gravity and Absorption of Fine/Coarse Aggregate - new screen for updated standard
| |
| |style="background:white smoke;"|The updated version of the screens for [AASHTO T 84-2013] Specific Gravity and Absorption of Fine Aggregate (ID 110264) and [AASHTO T 85-2014] Specific Gravity and Absorption of Coarse Aggregate(ID 110265) are now available.<BR>
| |
| Kindly contact Spectra QEST to be licensed for either screens.<BR>
| |
| <BR>
| |
| The only change of note in the standard is that it alters the definition of Bulk Specific Gravity (SSD), allowing the aggregate to be submerged for 15-19 hours, rather than explicitly 15 hours. This minor change in the standards require no change in functionality in QESTLab.<BR>
| |
| <BR>
| |
| The following changes are present in this version of the screens:
| |
| <UL>
| |
| <LI>The test method revision year has been updated</LI>
| |
| <LI>A fix has been incorporated to the Bulk Entry, where previously for old versions, the 'Density Determined Without First Drying' would display "Yes\" instead of "Yes".</LI>
| |
| <LI>A bug which caused the "Bulk Density ("Unit Weight") and Voids - AASHTO T 19 [110265]" to be unable to import the "Bulk Specific Gravity" from the "Specific Gravity of Coarse Aggregate - AASHTO T 84 [110264]" and "Specific Gravity of Fine Aggregate - AASHTO T 85 [110265]" test screens. has also been addressed as part of this update.</LI>
| |
| <LI>Some minor changes were made to labels on the screens and reports to ensure a match with the terminology of the standards.</LI>

| |style="background:white;"|Configurable Test Report E-mail Subject to include Work Order and Project details
| |
| |style="background:white;"|A new option, "Constructed Email Subject", has been added in the QEST Administrator Console (accessible via Configuration -> Options -> Publishing -> Email) that gives customers the ability to configure the Subject of the Email when sending Test Reports directly from QESTLab.<BR>
| |
| The option lets users configure which database fields appear in the subject line by including the field name within double box brackets.<BR>
| |
| <BR>
| |
| E.g. If the option is configured as "<nowiki>Report No: [[ReportNo]] of Client: [[ClientName]]</nowiki>" then it will generate the following email subject line; "Report No: WO-12345S01 of Client: My Test Client ABC".<BR>
| |
| <BR>
| |
| The fields that can be included in the subject line are restricted to the following:
| |
| <UL>
| |
| <LI>ReportNo</LI>
| |
| <LI>WorkOrderID</LI>
| |
| <LI>ClientCode</LI>
| |
| <LI>ClientName</LI>
| |
| <LI>ProjectCode</LI>
| |
| <LI>ProjectName</LI>
| |
| <LI>LabName</LI>
| |
| </UL>
| |
| If an incorrect field or format is entered then the entire Subject will revert to the default value which is, "<nowiki>Test Report [[ReportNo]]</nowiki>"

| |
| |style="background:white;"|The field "Load No", which can be used for entering the 'Load Number' from the concrete truck, has been made available on the Concrete Sample (ASTM/AASHTO) screen (1602).

| |
| |style="background:white smoke;"|New screens have been made available for the AASHTO T 99 and T 180 2015 standard revisions.
| |
| <ul>
| |
| <li>Proctor - Standard [AASHTO T 99 - 2015] [110090]</li>
| |
| <li>Proctor - Modified [AASHTO T 180 - 2015] [110091]</li>
| |
| </ul>
| |
| Also, two new reduced screens have been made available.
| |
| <ul>
| |
| <li>Proctor - Standard [AASHTO T 99 - 2015] * [110095]</li>
| |
| <li>Proctor - Modified [AASHTO T 180 - 2015] * [110096]</li>
| |
| </ul>
| |
| The non-reduced screens now also have a document level option, which controls if the various checkboxes for 'Plot X% Air Voids Line' are visible. This defaults to false.<br />
| |
| <br />
| |
| The 2015 versions of T 99 and T 180 now explicitly require oversize particle correction, in a way that was not implemented before. The new versions of these screens have a new oversize section which follows the method mentioned in the annexes of each standard.<br />
| |
| Adjustment of compaction results for oversize material is now included in the compaction standards and T 224 has been discontinued. References to AASHTO T 224 have been removed from the compaction report.

| <br />
| |
| This screen has been made to mirror the functionality of the 'Batch Plant Inspection Ticket' workflow in QESTField:
| |
| <ul>
| |
| <li>Material Types (Admixtures, Cementitious Materials, Water and Aggregates) can be created, modified and deleted.</li>
| |
| <li>The test screen pushes the data entered for the material types to the 'Mix Data' grid on the concrete sample. It will also cause this grid to lock and not be user-editable, when a Batch Plant Inspection Ticket is present on the sample.</li>
| |
| </ul>
| |
| Minor changes have been made to the QESTField Workflow also:
| |
|
| |
| <ul>
| |
| <li>The 'Comments' section now prints on the test report.</li>
| |
| <li>The user will not be able to leave the screen if a instance of a material type has been created, but hasn't had a Type selected from the drop-down list.</li>

| |style="background:white;"|Concrete Mass Per Unit Volume: Workflows added to QESTField, improvements for QESTLab screen
| |
| |style="background:white;"|In QESTField, users can now conduct the following Mass per Unit Volume tests as part of the Concrete Field Testing (AS) workflow:
| |
| <ul>
| |
| <li>Mass per Unit Volume of Freshly Mixed Concrete [AS 1012.5] (ID 16017)</li>
| |
| <li>Mass Per Unit Volume (Yield) [AS 1012.5] - Reduced (ID 10653)</li>
| |
| </ul>
| |
| To add an MPUV test to a concrete sample, select "Full" or "Reduced" from the 'Measured Density Method' drop-down on the 'FD' phase. For a reduced test, the final result can be entered directly into the 'Measured Density' field. For a full test, a button for the 'MPUV' phase will appear to provide the test's workflow. If no test is selected, 'Measured Density' can be entered directly as before.<br />
| |
| <br />
| |
| Additionally, the field 'Maximum Aggregate Size' can now be specified for concrete samples from external deliveries on the Concrete Field Testing (AS) workflow.<br />
| |
| <br />
| |
| In QESTLab, the following changes have been made to the test screens Mass per Unit Volume of Freshly Mixed Concrete [AS 1012.5] (ID 16017) and Mass per Unit Volume of Freshly Mixed Concrete [RMS T303] (ID 16022):
| |
| <ul>
| |
| <li>'Slump' and 'Number of Strokes per Layer' will now only be shown when the Compaction Method selected has type "Rodding".</li>
| |
| <li>'Mass Per Unit Volume' will now be reported to the nearest 10 kg/m³</li>
| |
| <li>The 'Measured Density' field on the Concrete Sample [AS] (ID 1604) screen will import its value from a child MPUV test and lock if one exists.</li>
| |
| </ul>

| <li>The Material LBR will not be calculated until two points above 90% of the required LBR have been entered. There is a warning message that will display until this requirement is met.</li>
| |
| <li>The reported MDD and OMC values are rounded to the nearest 0.1 on the test report.</li>
| |
| <li>A new oversize exclusion section has been included, which makes the screen comply with the new standard. This includes oversize results for the 2 inch, 0.75 inch and No. 4 Sieves. The user will also be able to record whether the subgrade or base oversize method is being used. Subgrade is the default. </li>
