The Resilient Modulus (M R) is a measure of subgrade material stiffness. A material''s resilient modulus is actually an estimate of its modulus of elasticity (E).While the modulus of elasticity is stress divided by strain for a slowly applied load, resilient modulus is stress divided by strain for rapidly applied loads – like those experienced by pavements.

Two aggregate types (Mexican Limestone and Recycled PCC (crushed)) were evaluated as unbound base materials. The basic material properties of the bound and unbound base materials were characterized through laboratory tests; repeated load triaxial tests were also conducted to evaluate their resilient modulus. Resilient ... Resilient Modulus ...

Resilient modulus of aggregate bases is an important parameter in the mechanistic models. The main goal of this study was to establish a simple and efficient means of predicting the resilient modulus of different types of Kentucky crushed stone aggregate bases.

calculate the CTA modulus of elasticity, and field cores were collected for testing compressive strength and modulus of elasticity. CTA gained strength with increases in cement content, and the increase in strength and the strength level depended on the aggregate properties, such as the resilient modulus of unbound aggregate.

reduce the strength and resilient modulus of base course or subgrade (NCHRP 2004). The MechanisticEmpirical Design Guide (MEMPG) presents a pavement design equation and provides a recommendation for selecting hydraulic parameters as inputs to adjust resilient modulus by degree of saturation for natural aggregate.

ABSTRACT Resilient response of granular aggregate is a key input parameter in all three hierarchical levels of the new Mechanistic

Feb 20, 2014· Resilient modulus (M R) is an important mechanical property widely used for the analysis and design of pavements. Therefore the determination of the resilient modulus of pavement materials is of vital importance for any mechanistically based design/analysis procedure for pavements.

This paper presents the results of research conducted to investigate the Resilient Modulus (Mr) of unbound aggregates used as pavement layer in Senegal (West Africa) as well as the effect of water content and density on the Resilient Modulus of the materials tested. Four different aggregates was collected from different sites within Senegal and then subjected to repeated load triaxial tests.

This model improves the means of obtaining best data "fits" between resilient modulus and stresses. Furthermore, the resilient modulus can be predicted, using the UKTC resilient modulus model, when the stress condition and type of Kentucky base aggregate are known.

Missouri Limestone Producers Association (MLPA) was interested in determining what effect a change in the Type 5 aggregate base gradation specification would have on the resilient modulus of said aggregate. The proposed change would lower the minimum allowable total percentage of material passing the #4 ( mm mesh)

In this study, the stiffness of unbound aggregate bases containing recycled materials will be examined using FWD field test data and laboratory resilient modulus tests. Background In the area of pavement recycling, fulldepth reclamation is a technique in which the existing pavement surface course along with a portion of the aggregate base are

limestone aggregates from the Anchor Stone quarry. For each gradation, both lower (LL) and upper (UL) limits were used and specimens were prepared using two different levels of compaction, namely standard Proctor and modified Proctor. Permeability (k) was measured using the falling head approach, while resilient modulus (M R
