GGU-COMPACT: Preface

The GGU-COMPACT program system allows evaluation and visualisation of Proctor compaction tests according to German Standard DIN 18127

Beside visualisation of the current Proctor compaction test, it is possible to visualise up to 15 further tests respectively their Proctor curve using the "Special" menu. A legend is shown for these tests (henceforth known as extra tests), allowing allocation of a line type to the test designations. For example, boundary curves can be entered via the extra tests.

The program includes convenient data input. The system is permanently displayed on the screen. Every change to the data is displayed on the screen, so that optimum control of the input data is guaranteed.

There are "?" and "Info"’ buttons in the dialog boxes for many technical and program-specific questions. Click on the "?" buttons or "Info" buttons to obtain the necessary information.

The graphic output supports the true type fonts provided by WINDOWS, so that an excellent layout is guaranteed. Colour output and numerous graphic formats (BMP, TIF, JPG etc.) are supported. PDF and DXF files can also be imported via the integrated Mini-CAD system (see "Mini-CAD" manual).

The program has been extensively tested. No errors have been found. Nevertheless, liability for completeness and correctness of the program and the manual, and for any damage resulting from incompleteness or incorrectness, cannot be accepted.
