Calibration of Rapid Moisture Meter No. R-1

The document summarizes the calibration of four rapid moisture meters (RMM Nos. R-1 to R-4) used to measure the moisture content of construction materials like soil and aggregate. The calibration involved taking actual moisture samples and comparing the RMM readings to the oven dry moisture content values obtained in the lab. Correction factors were determined and used to correct the RMM readings and calculate the accurate moisture content in the range of 1% to 18%. Sign-off was provided by the construction, supervision and independent engineer teams to verify the calibration process.
