摘要: Subgrade soil characterization in terms of Resilient Modulus (MR) has become crucial for pavement design. For a new design, MR values are generally obtained by conducting repeated load triaxial tests on reconstituted/undisturbed cylindrical specimens. Because the test is complex and time-consuming, in-situ tests would be desirable if reliable correlation equations could be established. Alternately, MR can be obtained from correlation equations involving stress state and soil physical properties. Several empirical equations have been suggested to estimate the resilient modulus. The main focus of this study is to substantiate the predictability of the existing equations and evaluate the feasibility of using one or more of those equations in predicting resilient modulus of Mississippi soils. This study also documents different soil index properties that influence resilient modulus.
