  21. Vertical strains at loading and no loading area (Section 2)(At the top of subgrade) 2010 FAA Technology Transfer Conference, Atlantic City, NJ, USA April 19-22

  22. Conclusions • PCC modulus is about 24,500 MPa, Econocrete modulus about 13,000 MPa. • Soft subgrade modulus runs from 90 MPa to 120 MPa. • Stiff subrade modulus is from 300 MPa to 380 MPa. • Damping coefficients are roughly less than 1 % of layer moduli in magnitude. 2010 FAA Technology Transfer Conference, Atlantic City, NJ, USA April 19-22

  23. Other observations • When subgrade strength is low, layer moduli of upper layers reduce after repeated loading. When subgrade strength is high, layer moduli of upper layers increase and subgrade modulus reduces after repeated loading. Is it because of densification of upper layers when subgrade is stiff? • Advantage of analytical solution is that responses (displacements, stresses and strains) can be easily computed anywhere.
