Determination of typical resilient modulus values for selected soils in Wisconsin
(Wisconsin Highway Research Program, 2006-05)The objective of this research is to develop correlations for estimating the resilient modulus of various Wisconsin subgrade soils from basic soil properties. A laboratory testing program was conducted on common subgrade ... -
Development of testing methods to determine interaction of geogrid-reinforced granular material for mechanistic pavement analysis
(Wisconsin Highway Research Program, 2009-03)A new method of examining soil stiffness based on the propagation of elastic waves is proposed and compared to traditional resilient modulus tests. A laboratory testing program is undertaken to study the effect of changing ... -
Investigation of new devices for use in determining mechanistic properties and performance
(Wisconsin Highway Research Program, 2005-11)The objective of this report is to provide the Wisconsin Department of Transportation (WisDOT) with an in-depth discussion of the various alternatives currently available for evaluating asphalt concrete mixtures and pavements ... -
Test method to determine aggregate/asphalt adhesion properties and potential moisture damage
(Wisconsin Highway Research Program, 2007-05)The aim of this research project was to improve current practice by investigating different test methods to quantify moisture damage in an effort to serve the short and long term needs of the agency and industry. In the ... -
Using gyratory compactor to measure mechanical stability of asphalt mixtures
(Wisconsin Highway Research Program, 2004-10)In this study several asphalt mixtures were produced using four different aggregate sources, different asphalt contents, and different aggregate gradations. Every mixture was compacted using the Superpave gyratory compactor ...
