Abstract
This paper investigates the effect of some physical properties on strength, stiffness, and deformation resistance of pure dense well graded crushed stone base blends. Manufactured crushed basaltic stone of three different particle sizes from Jebel Touryia was adopted for this study. Initially, attempt was performed to produce number of base blends from mixing these crushed particle sizes. Only two base blends are found to satisfy TRL GB3 base gradation requirements
