Investigations on Elastic Modulus of Crushed Gravel Using Deflections in Cameroun

View through CrossRef
The use of crushed gravels in roads construction has notably increased in Sub-Saharan countries in general, and in Cameroon as well. Due to their performances and the easiness of their technical utilization, this building material constituted actually the most current material for the base layers of Cameroon's roads. The traffics are almost moderated (MJA<750) in that country. The present study constituted a way of a better mastering of the rheological characteristics of this material, particularly its elastic modulus. The deflections measurements used were carried on with BENKELMAN beam and DEFLECTOGRAPH LACROIX, during the construction of three highways in Cameroon.
