Two unbound granular materials stiffness analysis with staged repeated load CBR test [PDF]
MATEC Web of Conferences, 2019 Design methods of flexible pavements in many countries are based on linear elastic behaviour model for Unbound Granular Materials (UGM). In this context, parameters required to characterize an UGM in structural analysis of pavements are Stiffness modulus

Long life pavements with recycled concrete in unbound granular layers
Roads and Bridges, 2023 The construction of unbound granular layers (UGLs) in pavement construction is mainly based on empiric knowledge of the behaviour of natural aggregates. Is it possible to transfer this behaviour to the performance of recycled materials in UGLs?

Resilient Behaviour of non Standard Unbound Granular Materials [PDF]
Road Materials and Pavement Design, 2009 The results of experimental work on three non-standard granular materials used in road construction are presented. Small strain precision triaxial tests under cyclic loading and wetting tests were performed on all samples. The materials' state parameters studied included: Los Angeles abrasion coefficient, Plasticity Index, and fines content above ...

The Baltic Journal of Road and Bridge Engineering, 2022 The performance of unbound base materials, exclusively of the upper base layers, besides compaction level and layer thickness, depends on unbound material type, aggregates shape, fine content and mechanical properties of aggregates.

Modelling the permanent deformation of unbound granular materials in pavements
Road Materials and Pavement Design, 2022 An existing permanent deformation (PD) model for the unbound granular materials (UGMs) in pavements, developed based on multistage (MS) repeated load triaxial (RLT) tests, was modified to better suit to field conditions and software applications. The model was calibrated for a few UGMs with a series of moisture contents (w) using MS (to include the ...

Behavior of unbound granular materials—part I: isotropic case [PDF]
Computers and Geotechnics, 2003 The paper discusses the modeling of the behavior of unbound granular materials. A representative approach that highlights some salient features of the behavior is proposed. This approach is essentially based on experimental results and the study is extended to the construction of the elastic potential from test results. to complete the analysis, two no-

New shakedown criterion and permanent deformation properties of unbound granular materials
Journal of Modern Transportation, 2019 Unbound granular material specifications for road pavements in Australia are primarily based on physical material specification rather than mechanical characterisation.
