In particular, when in-service assessment of pavement subgrade is made, the modulus-moisture variation should be addressed on the basis of unsaturated soil mechanics. This study presents the unsaturated small-strain modulus behavior of five predominately fine-grained compacted subgrade soils. The small-strain shear modulus (Go) of saturated compacted specimens subjected to a desorption soil-water characteristic curve (SWCC) was evaluated using bender elements. A test apparatus was designed to apply two stress state variables, the net confining pressure and matric suction, during the Go measurements. The relationship between Go and the SWCC under a constant mean net stress was developed. Additionally, the effect of compaction moisture content, compaction energy, and soil type on the Go -SWCC relationship was investigated. Finally, a relationship describing the small-strain modulus behavior of unsaturated compacted soils is proposed.
