Study on Relation Between CBR Value of Subgrade Soil and Miosture Content

Mehul L. Patel, Prof. N. G. Raval

Abstract :

The California Beå Ratio Test (CBR Test) is a test developed by California State Highway Department (U.S.A.) for evaluating the beå capacity of sub grade soil for design of flexible pavement. The CBR value of the sub grade soil is being used widely since a long time in design of pavement structure and is critical in deciding the overall thickness of the pavement.  In this study, laboratory investigations have been carried out on a number of soil samples procured from different roadwork sites. CBR tests have been conducted for same samples under various conditions of soaking, with due emphasis on moisture content parameters in the soil sample.
