Food for thought CBR of a high quality well-graded crushed stone base course materials: and "Modulus of subgrade reaction" for an A-2-5 silty sand (SM): From a CBR test, we can obtain and pci. characteristics of a soil; R value is obtained from a test; and Cl is short for static which is correlated to CBR. Percent passing No. 200 sieve for an A-7-6 soil: ; and the diameter of a standard plate used in plate loading tests is inches. The Corps of Engineers define modulus of subgrade reaction "k" as: In the design of rigid pavements, any correlation of soil modulus with the modulus of subgrade reaction "k" has to include as an additional variable. GPR: Log CBR = 0.84 – 1.26 * Log (PR). What is PR? SASW: The Hamboldt (HSG) is claimed to be a man-portable instrument that provides a simple, rapid, and precise means of directly measuring in-situ soil modulus.
