From page 35...
... Because the flow number and flow time tests are very similar, this conclusion can also be extended to the flow time test. The equipment effects experiment demonstrated that there is little difference in dynamic modulus and flow number data collected with equipment meeting the SPT equipment specification supplied by three manufacturers.

... Finally poor performance of the specimen-mounted deformation measuring system for the MDTS equipment resulted in complete redesign of this component of the equipment.
