This book was released on 2019 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The drainage performance of unbound granular material (UGM) is an important consideration in pavement design because the presence of excess moisture in UGM layers can eventually lead to premature failures. Recently, transportation agencies have been evaluating their granular base and subbase drainage and mechanical performance to ensure sufficient drainage capacity while maintaining adequate structural support to produce more sustainable pavement structures. Linking performance to UGM construction specification requires accurate characterization of UGM's mechanical and drainage performance and how physical and gradation parameters affect such performance. These evaluations led to an update of the specification requirements of UGM in many jurisdictions including Manitoba. In this research, constant head hydraulic conductivity, resilient modulus, permanent deformation, double ring infiltrometer, and falling weight deflectometer test methods were used in laboratory and field investigations. These tests were conducted to characterize the drainage and mechanical performance of ten UGM samples representing four different gradation bands. The laboratory test results were also used to investigate the reliability of the estimated hydraulic conductivity from the Moulton prediction model and from the Enhanced Integrated Climatic Model (EICM). Test results showed an improvement in resilient modulus and drainage quality for samples in gradation bands that specify larger maximum aggregate size and limited fines. A statistical analysis of the test results showed that D10 larger than 0.2mm and D60 larger than 8mm would guarantee higher stiffness and better drainage performance with a time-to drain of less than 5days for typical pavement cross-sections and a resilient modulus value exceeding 200MPa. The Moulton prediction model was found to provide a better approximation of hydraulic conductivity of the materials included in this study, while the EICM model was found to significantly overestimate the hydraulic conductivity for most of the samples.

Book excerpt: Nearly all highway, airport, dock and industrial pavements contain large quantities of untreated aggregate in the form of unbound pavement layers. In many pavements, which are lightly or moderately trafficked, crushed rock or gravel derived aggregates comprise the majority of the construction or, in the case of unsealed pavements, all of the structure. This book provides studies of the performance and description of this material that will help the reader to better understand its characteristics and behaviour both alone and as part of the pavement structure it forms. This work will be useful to practitioners, policy makers, researchers and students. It forms a sequel to the earlier book "Unbound Aggregates in Road Construction" also published by Balkema

This book was released on 2016 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Characterization of the effect of physical properties on the performance such as stiffness and drainage of unbound granular materials is necessary in order to incorporate them in pavement design. The stiffness, deformation and permeability behaviour of unbound granular materials are the essential design inputs for Mechanistic-Empirical Pavement Design Guide as well as empirical design methods. The performance based specifications are aimed to design, and construct a durable and cost effective material throughout the design life of a pavement. However, the specification varies among jurisdiction depending on the historical or current practice, locally available materials, landform, climate and drainage. A literature review on the current unbound granular materials virgin and recycled concrete aggregate base construction specification has been carried out in this study. Resilient modulus, permanent deformation and permeability tests have been carried out on seven gradations of materials from locally available sources. Resilient modulus stiffness of unbound granular material at two different conditioning stress level have been compared in the study. The long term deformation behaviour has also been characterized from results of the permanent deformation test using shakedown approach, dissipated energy approach and a simplified approach. The results show improvement in resilient modulus and permanent deformation for the proposed specification compared to the currently used materials as a results of reduced fines content, increased crush count and inclusion of larger maximum aggregate size into the gradation. A significant effect of particle packing on permeability of granular materials have also been found, in addition to the effect of fines.

Shabbir Hossain and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The implementation of mechanistic-empirical pavement design requires mechanistic characterization of pavement layer materials. The subgrade and base materials are used as unbound, and their characterization for Virginia sources was considered in this study as a supplement to a previous study by the Virginia Transportation Research Council. Resilient modulus tests were performed in accordance with AASHTO T 307 on fine and coarse soils along with base aggregates used in Virginia. The degree of saturation as determined by moisture content and density has shown significant influence on the resilient behavior of these unbound materials. The resilient modulus values, or k-values, are presented as reference for use by the Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT). The results of other tests were analyzed for correlation with the results of the resilient modulus test to determine their use in estimating resilient modulus values. The results of the triaxial compression test, referred to as the quick shear test in AASHTO T 307, correlated favorably with the resilient modulus. Although the complexity of such a test is similar to that of the resilient modulus test for cohesionless coarse soil and base aggregate, fine cohesive soil can be tested with a simpler triaxial test: the unconfined compression test. In this study, a model was developed to estimate the resilient modulus of fine soil from the initial tangent modulus produced on a stress-strain diagram from an unconfined compression test. The following recommendations are made to VDOT's Materials Division: (1) implement the use of the resilient modulus test for pavement design along with the implementation of the MEPDG; (2) use the universal constitutive model recommended by the MEPDG to generate the k-values needed as input to MEPDG Level 1 design/analysis for resilient modulus calculation; (3) develop a database of resilient modulus values (or k-values), which could be used in MEPDG design/analysis if a reasonable material match were to be found; (4) use the initial tangent modulus from an unconfined compression test to predict the resilient modulus values of fine soils for MEPDG Level 2 input and the 1993 AASHTO design; and (5) continue to collect data for the unconfined compression test and update the prediction model for fine soil in collaboration with the Virginia Transportation Research Council. Implementing these recommendations would support and expedite the implementation efforts under way by VDOT to initiate the statewide use of the MEPDG. The use of the MEPDG is expected to improve VDOT's pavement design capability and should allow VDOT to design pavements with a longer service life and fewer maintenance needs and to predict maintenance and rehabilitation needs more accurately over the life of the pavement.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Several tests are used for characterizing unbound granular materials for pavement applications. The California Bearing Ratio (CBR), resilient modulus (MR), Dynamic Cone Penetrometer (DCP) tests are three of the most common tests used for this purpose. The objective of this research is twofold. The first is to develop numerical models for these three tests. The second is to investigate relationship between basic material properties, boundary conditions, and test results, ultimately, to develop a physics-based correlation between these tests. A 3-D discrete element method (DEM) based model is adapted to simulate these tests. Good agreement is observed between the results of the simulations and sample numerical and experimental studies on granular materials. The DEM code is used to determine effects of aggregate shape, coefficient of friction, gradation, stiffness and other details on test results. The model is also used to investigate statistics of inter-particle interaction between the granular particles.
