Research on Design Indicators for Graded Crushed Stone Mixture Based on Vibration Molding Method by Li-biao Chen, Er-hu Yan, Jian Xu, Tao Ma, Jun-cheng Zeng, Yan Gong

“…Therefore, based on the modified vibration compaction, the guidelines for standardized mix design of graded crushed stone mixture in Fujian province are proposed: the resilient modulus of 300 MPa and the deformation rate of 10–8 in the dynamic triaxial test are used as the performance indicators of the bearing capacity and the antideformation ability; the shear strength of 400 kPa in the static triaxial test is used as the performance indicators of the shear failure resistance. Besides, most limestone mixtures perform well and have the advantages of good resistance to permanent deformation and shear resistance.…”
