Abstract:

This report describes the evaluation of a gyratory compactor developed by the Texas Transportation Institute for the sole purpose of producing specimens of high uniformity for repetitive triaxial testing. The material selected for use in the evaluation was a crushed limestone. In prior investigations, replicate specimens made from this limestone exhibited somewhat erratic behavior. In-fact, of the several materials tested this material was by far the most troublesome. Nevertheless, it is an excellent flexible base material and widely used in this state.
