The soaked CBR value of subbase materials at maximum dry density is
30%
35%
25%
12%
The maximum compacted thickness per layout for both aggregate subbase and base courses is
100mm

It is defined as the lowest moisture at which the soil will flow upon the application of a very small shearing force.
Liquid Limit
Plastic Limit
Plasticity Index
It is defined as the minimum moisture content of which the soil can be readily moulded without breaking or crumbling
Liquid Limit
Plastic Limit
Plasticity Index
It indicates compressibility, high ___ means high degree of compressibility of a soil. It is also related to permeability, the higher the ___ the lower the permeability, and vice versa.
Liquid Limit
Plastic Limit
Plasticity Index
It determines the grain size distribution in soils by sieve, hydrometer or a combined analysis. It is widely used in the classification and identification of soil. It is an important criteria in the classification if highway subgrade materials.
Sieve Analysis
California Bearing Ratio (CBR)
Abrasion Test
It evaluates structural strength of coarse aggregates. An indication of quality as determined by resistance to impact and wear.
Sieve Analysis
California Bearing Ratio
Abrasion Test
The base reduces the vertical compressive stress induced by traffic in the subbase and the subgrade.

Item 203
The subbase is a structural layer which accepts greater compressive strength than the subgrade and thus reduces the deformation of the pavement under traffic loading.
Subbase Course
Base Course
Surface Course
Subgrade Course
It determines the bearing capacity of soil on its worst condition
