Description
Proper structural design of pavement systems requires knowing the resilient modulus of the soil as this parameter is a proven predictor of the stress-dependent elastic modulus of soil materials under traffic loading. In addition, the R-value test is conducted using a device called a stabilometer, where the material's resistance to deformation is expressed as a function of the ratio of the transmitted lateral pressure to that of the applied vertical...
