RESUMEN: En este trabajo se presentan una serie de resultados experimentales que ilustran los cambios que el módulo de resiliencia de un suelo compactado puede experimentar, cuando sufre cambios en sus contenidos de agua y grado de saturación, por efecto de los procesos de secado y humedecimiento a los que está sujeto el pavimento de una carretera en su interacción con el medio ambiente. Se discute la problemática asociada a la selección del módulo de resiliencia adecuado para fines de diseño de pavimentos.
