Abstract
This paper aims at studying the possibility of using a bio-wicking system to address the potential concerns and further reduce the moisture content of base course material for the long run. Two types of tests, elemental-level and full-scale tests, were performed to evaluate the moisture migration in a typical aggregate with 14.5% of fines. Test results indicated that the bio-wicking system successfully addresses the concerns in the original design and is a more effective drainage system to dehydrate a base course compared with the original design.
