Black Cotton Soil Modification by the Application of Waste Materials
The black cotton soil is a type of problematic expansive soil which causes many problems in the construction of structures founded on them. It is having a swelling and impervious nature with poor geotechnical subgrade characteristics. In this research an approach is made towards the way of improvement in the various geotechnical properties of black cotton soil such as index properties, swelling...
متن کاملEffects of Aggregate Gradation on Resilient Modulus and CBR in Unbound Granular Materials
Resilient modulus and California Bearing Ratio (CBR) in unbound granular materials are the key technical characteristics of layers in a flexible pavement design. Among the factors affecting these two parameters, the aggregate gradation is the most important. Using particle size distribution curve developed by AASHTO, together with other considerations mentioned in the related regulations have y...
متن کاملEstimation of Subgrade Resilient Modulus Using Unconfined Compression Test
1 2 Resilient modulus test is the recommended test to characterize subgrade soil for 3 pavement design in 1993 AASHTO pavement design guide as well as new proposed 4 Mechanistic-Empirical Pavement Design Guide (MEPDG). This test requires significant 5 resources including high level of technical capability to conduct. For smaller projects where 6 costly and complex resilient modulus testing is n...
متن کاملEstimation of Subgrade Resilient Modulus Using the Unconfined Compression Test
To facilitate pavement design, the new proposed mechanistic-empirical pavement design guide recommends the resilient modulus to characterize subgrade soil and its use for calculating pavement responses attributable to traffic and environmental loading. Although resilient modulus values could be determined through laboratory testing of actual subgrade soil samples, such testing would require sig...
متن کاملDevelopment of Routine Resilient Modulus Testing: New Devices and Procedures
PROBLEM STATEMENT When designing and evaluating asphalt pavements, engineers must have an understanding of how the pavement materials will react to the stresses and strains of vehicle loads at varying temperatures. When a load is applied to asphalt concrete at a certain temperature, to what degree will the pavement "bounce back" to its original height? Pavement designers predict this spring-lik...
