A test system and test method continuously and intelligently measures water content of subgrade in real time. The test system is based on the theory of resistivity, and is equipped with a wheeled machine to measure the water content of subgrade. The wheeled machine includes scroll roller. The test system includes: at least one set of electrode including four probes wherein detection parts of the four probes are linearly and equidistantly arranged on the scroll roller. The arrangement direction of the detection parts of the four probes is parallel to the axis of the scroll roller; a data integration apparatus is connected to the four probes and used for performing data calculation, analysis, and transmission; the electric source is connected to data integration apparatus and used for supplying a working current. The system and method can realize automatic signal collection, non-destructive detection of subgrade soil and dynamic water content measurement.

System and method for continuously and intelligently measuring water content of subgrade in real time

A test device including a closeable cavity and a water flow groove with a water transmission channel existing between the water flow groove and the internal part of the cavity. The water flow groove includes a water inlet and a water outlet with the depth of the water inlet being greater than the depth of the water outlet. Simultaneously, side lead-in pipe of drain pipe and elbow pipe on side wall of water inlet pipe are consistent with height of top surface of the ceramic plate, making hydraulic pressure of tested soil sample being zero during dehydrating and soaking process capable of ensuring accuracy of test result. A necking design is applied to reduce water evaporation in the drainage pipe and lower the test errors. Side lead-in pipe is connected with drainage pipe for smoothly draining water and also can prevent air reversely flowing and entering into the base.
