The skeleton dense graded cement-stabilized crushed stone base is a widely used material for road construction. However, this material is susceptible to freeze–thaw damage, which can lead to degradation and failure, for which there is still a lack of an in-depth understanding of the freeze–thaw damage characteristics. This study aims to assess the …

By analyzing crushed stone aggregates with different material ratios, it is found that the addition of an appropriate amount of limestone can effectively enhance the resilience modulus of crushed stone aggregates, especially when the ratio of quartz to limestone is 3:1, the crushed stone aggregates show strong deformation resistance.
The study indicated that at a same curing time, coefficient of dry shrinkage of lime-fly ash stabilized crushed stone was 15.2% less than that of cement stabilized crushed stone at early time, and reported that resilient modulus of cement-fly ash or lime-fly ash stabilized crushed stone was lower than cement stabilized crushed stone [96].

The dynamic modulus test results for five bituminous mix types (crushed stone, gravel, slag, sand-low P200, sand-high P2ool were compared with modulus values predicted by using the Asphalt Institute regression model. Results of this comparison showed an excellent correlation for crushed stone, which was
On the other hand, concrete elastic modulus of specimens containing crushed brick increase as the replacement percentage increased due to their stronger particles as compared to rubber and plastic waste particles. However a reduction in the elastic modulus was observed by others (Cachim, 2009; Uddin et al., 2017; Zhang & Zong, 2014). This ...

The increase in the crushed stone content increased the elastic modulus of the CSRP, and the crushed stone diameter had little effect on the elastic modulus and compressive strength of the CSRP. Under the conditions investigated in this study, the elastic modulus of the CSRP increased by 52% when the crushed stone content increased from 35% to 60%.
properties of the gravel fill, such as nonlinear shear modulus, are required in seismic analyses to evaluate the response to dynamic loading. From a series of Resonant Column and Torsional Shear (RCTS) tests on two types of crushed gravel fill, normalized shear modulus reduction curves were obtained as a function of cyclic shear strain.
