Density Testing - Remarks

Table of Contents

Purpose

Remarks are used to provide field technicians and project managers a defined list of comments (remarks) that can be assigned to a particular test based on the results of the test. Codes will default on test records based on the business rules applied to them. Public remark codes appear on density test reports with a footnote disclosing the description of each code.

Field	Description
Test Type	Indicates the type of density test the remark applies to
Code	Code used to represent a particular remark Up to 5 characters allowed Must be unique Used internally only
Description	Description of the Code Used internally only
Public Code	The code that will display on a report Up to 5 characters allowed Does NOT need to be unique
Public Description	Description of the Public Code The description that will display on a report
Density Rule	Test results (Density Pass, Density Fail, No Pass/Fail or other) that map to the remark code Combination of Density and Moisture rules must be unique within a sample type for business rules containing Density Pass or Moisture Pass No Pass/Fail or Other business rule can be used for additional codes and do not need to be unique
Moisture Rule	Test results (Moisture Pass, Density Fail, No Pass/Fail or Other) that map to the remark code Combination of Density and Moisture rules must be unique within a sample type for business containing Density Pass or Moisture Pass No Pass/Fail or Other business rule can be used for additional codes and do not need to be unique

Considerations

When defining and mapping out remark codes, consider all combinations of density and moisture test results.

Example

Each test type would require its own set of codes...

Code	Description	Density Result Business Rule	Moisture Result Business Rule	Notes
A	Description for code A	Pass	Pass	Assigned if both the density and moisture had a displayed Pass result
B	Description for code B	Pass	Fail	Assigned if density has a displayed Pass result and moisture has a displayed Fail result
C	Description for code C	Fail	Pass	Assigned if density has a displayed Fail result and moisture has a displayed Pass result
D	Description for code D	Fail	Fail	Assigned if both the density and moisture had a displayed Fail result
E	Description for Code E	Pass	No Pass/Fail or Other	Assigned if density has a displayed Pass result and there is no displayed moisture result (i.e. No Moisture Specifications test)
F	Description for Code F	Fail	No Pass/Fail or Other	Assigned if density has a displayed Fail result and there is no displayed moisture result (i.e. No Moisture Specifications test)
G	Description for Code G	No Pass/Fail or Other	No Pass/Fail or Other	Another remark code that is simply available for selection - it will never default for a particular test
H	Description for Code H	No Pass/Fail or Other	No Pass/Fail or Other	Another remark code that is simply available for selection - it will never default for a particular test
I	Description for Code I	No Pass/Fail or Other	No Pass/Fail or Other	Another remark code that is simply available for selection - it will never default for a particular test
