Faculty of Engineering, Sinai University, El Arish, Egypt. Soil bearing capacity and soil modulus of subgrade reaction are some various measures of strength-deformation properties of soil. To perform ...

The subgrade, serving as the support for the highway pavement structure, endures long-term cyclic loads from moving vehicles during its service life. This leads to deterioration in the dynamic ...

Subgrade reaction modulus (Ks) is one of the main factors in evaluating engineering properties of soils for structural calculations and operations. So, many studies have been performed on the effect ...

Modulus of subgrade reaction or coefficient of subgrade reaction is the reaction pressure sustained by the soil sample under a rigid plate of standard diameter per unit settlement measured at a ...

The decrease in the subgrade modulus immersed in rainwater can significantly increase the fracture risk of a cement concrete pavement plate. The aim of this study was to develop a meshless finite ...

Abstract: The paper first analyzes the seasonal variation law of subgrade resilient modulus and water content, and then summarizes the common quantitative adjustment methods, calculation of the ...

The organic soil is the least desirable because it cannot be consolidated and hence shall be removed from the site. Granular soil offers ultimate load carrying capacity and can be compacted easily.
