The objectives of this research are to establish a resilient modulus test results database and to develop correlations for estimating the resilient modulus of Wisconsin fine-grained soils from basic soil properties. A laboratory testing program was conducted on representative Wisconsin fine-grained soils to evaluate their physical and compaction properties. The resilient modulus of the investigated soils was determined from the repeated load triaxial (RLT) test following the AASHTO T307 procedure. The laboratory testing program produced a high-quality and consistent test results database.

"Resilient modulus indicates the stiffness of a soil under controlled confinement conditions and repeated loading. The test is intended to simulate the stress conditions that occur in the base and subgrade of a pavement system. Resilient modulus has been adopted by the U.S. federal highway administration as the primary performance parameter for pavement design. We thank those who prepared these papers, the reviewers who provided anonymous peer reviews, and those who participated in the symposium. We hope this STP encourages more work to improve the testing standard and the value of the Resilient Modulus test."
