Initial Characterization of Subgrade Soils and Granular Base Materials at the Minnesota Road Research Project
This research was conducted on the behavior of materials at the Minnesota Road Research Project (Mn/ROAD), the construction of which was completed in 1994. Falling-Weight Deflectometer (FWD) tests were conducted on the test sections at all stages of pavement construction (pre-base, post-base, and post pavement). Deflection values were highly variable due to variability in surface condition, soil moisture content, density, and stress-dependent effects. In general, backcalculated subgrade moduli tended to increase with increasing FWD sensor offset (decreasing stress). Post-base and post-pavement testing also indicated an apparent increase in subgrade modulus relative to pre-base values. Moduli values were also determined for granular base results. The results of this testing will provide a baseline for future analysis of the test sections at Mn/ROAD.
