3.6.6 Vane Shear Test Figure 3.13 Cyclic loading wave form (from Pokharel 2010) Vane shear tests (ASTM D2573-08) were carried out to check the undrained shear strength of subgrade during the preparation of the subgrade for test sections. The size of the vane was 18.8 mm in diameter and 28.5 mm in length. The vane shear test as shown in figure 3.14 was used to evaluate the undrained shear strengths (Cu) at depths of 10 cm, 18 cm, and 25 cm from the top of the prepared subgrade section at five different locations, and ensure the quality and consistency of the prepared subgrade to attain the desired strength. The obtained undrained shear strength by the vane shear test was used to estimate the CBR value of the prepared subgrade. If the desired value of strength was not met, the subgrade was re-prepared until the desired strength was reached. The following relationship established for this subgrade by Pokharel (2010) was used to estimate the subgrade CBR value using the undrained shear strength (Cu) by the vane shear test: CBR(%) (3.1) 20. 5 38 Cu
3.6.7 Dynamic Cone Penetration Test Figure 3.14 Vane shear test apparatus Dynamic Cone Penetration (DCP) tests (ASTM D6951-03) were carried out at four different locations approximately 24 hours after the placement of the RAP base course. The objective of this test was to determine the CBR profile of subgrade and base course in each test section. The following relationship established by Webster et al. (1992, 1994) was used to estimate the CBR value. where, 292 CBR(%) ( DPI ) DPI = dynamic cone penetration index (mm/blow). 39 1. 12 (3.2)
