tion from impact compaction (Marshall) to that of gyratory compaction. The SUPERPAVE® Gyratory Compactor (SGC) has been developed from the Texas Gyratory Machine and the French Laboratoire des Ponts et Chaussees (LCPC) gyratory protocol. It is believed that the resulting mix-tures more closely resemble those that have been compacted in normal con-
Gyratory Compactors are used to model and reproduce real-world compaction conditions during road paving operations, allowing the compaction qualities of the asphalt mixture to be determined. In an asphalt pavement laboratory, gyratory compactors are also known as a Swiss Army knife, as explained in our blog piece, which you may read here.

The Superpave gyratory compactor was used for measuring densification of the mixtures as well as shear resistance during the densification process. The densification is measured at relatively high temperatures resembling compaction temperatures, generally in the range of 125 – 140 C. The resistance of mixtures to permanent deformation ...

The primary operating parameters for the gyratory compactor include the pressure applied to the specimen during compaction; the speed of gyration/rotation; the number of gyrations applied to the specimen; and the angle of gyration. The sample of 100or150 mm dia can be prepared which can be further used for performance testing.
Gyratory compaction is considered to be one of the best methods of laboratory compaction for the assessment of compactibility and the manufacture of test specimens. Compaction is achieved by the application of a vertical stress (normally 600KPa) via end platens to a known mass of asphaltic mixture within a 100 or 150mm internal Ø mould.

It is based on the motion of the bituminous sample which generates a conical surface of revolution, characterized by the gyratory angle.
Superpave Gyratory Compactor (SGC) is a laboratory device used for simulating the compaction process in the field. The SGC applies a combination of vertical and rotational forces to compact the sample by uniform energy. The compaction process in the SGC involves placing the mixture into a cylindrical mold and subjecting it to a predetermined ...
