Modulus of Elasticity for compacted granular backfill
Modulus of Elasticity for compacted granular backfill
(OP)
can anyone tell me a source for accurate modulus of elasticity values for various depths of compacted granular backfill ... 3/4"-0, 1-1/2"-0, 4"-0, a lot of text books show how to calculate stresses and strains but do not give any hints as to the typical material property ...
thanks in advance,

RE: Modulus of Elasticity for compacted granular backfill
As for resilient modulus (if you are looking for pavement considerations), then the smaller aggregate would be in the 20 ksi to 60 ksi range, assuming good gradation and compaction.
