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.

This report describes a study jointly conducted by the University of Wyoming and the Wyoming Department of Transportation to examine the factors influencing the determination of a subgrade resilient modulus value. The objectives of this study were to first, investigate the importance of several fundamental soil properties in determining a design subgrade resilient modulus value; and second, to define the actual relationship between back calculated and laboratory based resilient modulus values for typical cohesive subgrade soils in Wyoming. This study consisted of selecting nine test sites with cohesive subgrade soils in the state of Wyoming, conducting laboratory testing on subgrade cores obtained in 1992 and 1993, determining several fundamental soil properties on these cores, and using deflection data from these nine sites to determine resilient modulus values from three back calculation programs. The data analysis resulted in several important conclusions about factors that influence the selection of a design subgrade resilient modulus value.

The objective of this project was to determine the resilient moduli for common Missouri subgrade soils and typical unbound granular base materials in accordance with the AASHTO T 307 test method. The results allow Missouri Department of Transportation pavement engineers to calibrate software included with the National Cooperative Highway Research Program Project 1-37A Mechanistic-Empirical Pavement Design Guide according to Missouri's conditions and materials. The test results included resilient moduli data from 27 common subgrade soils out of the 99 Missouri soil associations and from five unbound granular base materials. The subgrade soils, selected and provided by MoDOT, were tested at their optimum water content (as determined from AASHTO T 99 testing (AASHTO, 2001)) and at an elevated water content. The five unbound granular base materials, again selected and provided by MoDOT and representing a typical range in geologic source, were tested at two different gradations (typical as-delivered percent minus #200 sieve size and at an elevated amount of fines). All testing included three replications for all materials. Data are provided in the form of tables and graphs. As a part of the granular base material resilient moduli (Mr) specimen preparation deliberation, MDD and OMC were determined for each of the 10 material/gradation combinations. The Mr testing program results indicate that both the material source and fines content are highly significant in the level of attained resilient modulus. In regard to material source, the range between the highest and lowest Mr values was more than two-fold. Also, two of the five aggregate sources suffered a 15 to 20% loss in Mr with the addition of five percent fines.

In 2004, the Guide for the Mechanistic-Empirical Design of New & Rehabilitated Pavement Structures (MEPDG) was developed under NCHRP Project 1-37A to replace the currently used 1993 Guide for Design of Pavement Structures by the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials, which has an empirical approach. Implementation of the MEPDG requires the mechanistic characterization of pavement materials and the calibration of performance prediction models by the user agencies. The purpose of this study was (1) to determine the resilient modulus values for Virginia's subgrade soils for input into MEPDG design/analysis efforts, and (2) to investigate the possible correlation of the resilient modulus with other soil properties. Although the MEPDG provides default values and correlations for resilient modulus, they are based on a limited number of tests and may not be applicable for Virginia soils and aggregates. The possible correlation of the resilient modulus with other soil properties was investigated because such correlations could be used for smaller projects where costly and complex resilient modulus testing is not justified. More than 100 soil samples from all over Virginia representing every physiographic region were collected for resilient modulus, soil index properties, standard Proctor, and California Bearing Ratio testing. Resilient modulus values and regression coefficients (k-values) of constitutive models for resilient modulus for typical Virginia soils were successfully computed. There were no statistically significant correlations between the resilient modulus and all other test results, with the exception of those for the quick shear test, for which the correlation was very strong (R2 = 0.98). The study recommends that the Virginia Department of Transportation's Materials Division (1) implement resilient modulus testing for characterizing subgrade soils in MEPDG Level 1 pavement design/analysis, and (2) use the quick shear test to predict the resilient modulus values of fine soils using the relationships developed in this study for MEPDG Level 2 design/analysis
