In the construction of roadbeds in mountainous areas, crushed rock slag (CRS) generated by tunnel blasting is usually reused as road construction material to reduce environmental pollution and construction costs. A series of large-scale drained triaxial tests were conducted to investigate the mechanical behavior of CRS subjected to static and traffic loading. The static triaxial tests determined the maximum stress level that can be applied to the cyclic test. The cyclic triaxial test analyses the influence of cyclic stress amplitude and confining pressure on the cu-mulative strain of CRS material. The particle breakage of the sample under various conditions after cyclic loading was discussed, and the relationship between the relative breakage index and the final accumulated strain was analyzed. Test results indicated that with the increase in confining pressure, the peak strength of the material exhibits a continual enhancement, while the expansion behavior experiences a gradual attenuation. In the range of static failure strength, the increase of cyclic stress level will significantly increase the accumulated axial strain rate. After the cyclic loading, the particle breakage patterns are similar under different confining pressures. A good power function relationship exists between the relative breakage index and final axial strain, and further derivation of the functional expression of the relative breakage index and both cyclic stress ratio and confining pressure.
