VIDEO TRANSCRIPT

Michigan uses banker's rounding and unique volumetric checks to determine if asphalt and aggregate complies with its specification. In this Lightning Demo, I'll show you LASTRADA's two simple selections that direct the software to change calculations to Michigan banker's rounding and other features unique to Michigan specification.

To apply Michigan banker's rounding for aggregate production and tests, you select the check box here and LASTRADA will apply this rule to the following tests. For asphalt mix design or productions, which we call declarations, you will select Michigan state in the regional settings.

When required to use the Michigan DOT mix design Gse, add the value here in the declaration and LASTRADA will use the provided Gse for certain volumetric calculations. To apply the Michigan no sieving loss procedure, press this button here to reapportion the sieve loss per Michigan.
