The Hveem Stabilometer is a triaxial testing device used to determine the stability
of bituminous paving mixtures, soils and other plastic or semi-plastic materials.
The device was originally developed by the California Division of Highways to
measure the combined effects of frequent traffic loads, repeated over a long
period of time, on a given bituminous mix.Test results are used to determine the
maximum amount of bituminous binder which can be used without causing instability.
The Stabilometer is designed to test 4" (101.6 mm) diameter specimens in accordance with ASTM Testing Standards D-1560 and D-2844; AASHTO tests T-190
and T-246; and California Test Methods 301 and 366.

High-Low Detector
The Hi-Low Detector (Rolling Straight Edge) is used for measuring pavement
planeness.
Rolled by one person along a highway, airport runway, or bridge surface, the unit
detects, registers, and dye marks high and low areas that need to be ground or
re-rolled.
The indicator wheel detects high and low areas in the pavement surface, and a
large pointer scale, mounted above the wheel and immediately in front of the
steering handle, registers these areas in full view of the operator.Variations are
magnified 16 times on a vertical scale graduated in 1/8" (1 mm) increments, so
that magnified readings range up to 1/4" (6.4 mm), high or low.
The unit is designed for maximum operator convenience and accuracy.The unit
is made from lightweight aluminum and features a telescoping design to reduce
weight and storage space.The direct-reading dial indicator eliminates the need
for any conversion or field calculations and the vibrator system assures accurate
pavement measurements.
An optional battery-operated 9-volt bell-buzzer located near the operator indicates high and low pavement surfaces simultaneously with the visual indicator.
Specifications
Upon receiving the visual and audible indicator signals, the operator depresses a
button on the steering handle that controls the marking-dye discharge valve. Bright
orange dye sprays onto the irregular surface from a replaceable aerosol can
mounted directly beside the indicator wheel.

The Vacuum Pycnometer is a large capacity unit designed for use in determining
the maximum specific gravity of bituminous paving mixtures.
This smaller Vacuum Pycnometer is used in the Rice Test to determine the specific
gravity of bituminous paving mixtures with maximum aggregate size up to 3/4"
(19.1 mm).This 4.5 liter size will handle a 2,000 gram sample.The transparent lid
on the pycnometer allows the operator to observe the bubble release from the
asphalt sample during the test. A second volumetric lid, tapered with a capillary
bore, is provided so the unit can be used as a volumeter for determining specific
gravity of compacted bituminous mixtures.Vacuum is achieved by using the
accessory aspirator or laboratory vacuum pump.
