To support Soil Density testing, a minimal amount of Proctor data must be entered for active projects.
Proctor testing of soil samples is done in a lab. Therefore, data entry into the MetaField™ Lab component is done by lab personnel (and/or by other assigned individuals who are forwarded this information from the lab).
Proctor results need to be entered into MetaField™ before Soil Density tests (using a nuclear gauge) can be completed
To enter Proctor information into MetaField:
- Begin by selecting Lab from the MetaField home page.
- On the first screen in the Lab area, select Soil Proctor Results.
- Next, there are 2 options for entering the Proctor information:
- Select Add Proctor or Select View Proctors
- Which option do you choose?
- Use Add Proctor when entering Proctors for different projects or to add a single Proctor quickly – without searching for a project first.
- Use View Proctors when you have many Proctors to enter for a single project and want to view them as entered.
- If the Add Proctor option is chosen, follow these steps:
- Fill out all required fields.
- Select Save.
- If the View Proctors option is chosen, follow these steps:
- Use the Search feature to locate the project the Proctor will be related to,
- then select the View Proctors link for that project.
or
- Select View Proctors next to a project on the list of Recent Projects
- After selecting View Proctors, a list of the Proctors for the chosen project will display.
- To add a new Proctor
