Prediction of Cbr Values From Compaction, Gradation and Plasticity Characteristics of Red Soils

Abstract

CBR is an important parameter in assessing the strength of flexible pavement layers. Estimation of CBR values from laboratory methods are time consuming and laborious. In this aspect indirect methods play useful role in supporting the quality of estimation of CBR values. In the present study red soil samples of coarse grained nature are used in predicting compaction characteristics such as optimum moisture content and maximum dry density. These models with R2 values are in the range of 0.51 to 0.58 have obtained using grain size distribution, consistency as independent variable.
