Abstract
The influence of plastic fines on the deformation behaviour of unbound granular base (UGB) materials has been investigated experimentally by cyclic triaxial test. The framework of unsaturated soil mechanics with direct measurement of matric suction under cyclic loading was applied in this study. The evolution of matric suction, resilient modulus, and permanent strain with load cycles is studied up to 28*103 cycles per test. This approach provides the opportunity of the possible use of locally available non-standard materials in pavement design.
