must be considered are the type of soil to be stabilized, the purpose for which the stabilized layer will be used, the type of soil improvement desired, the required strength and durability of the stabilized layer, and the cost and environmental conditions. 2.1.1 SOIL TYPES AND ADDITIVES. There may be more than one candidate
For instance, carbonation damages the cement-modified crushed rocks as a typical material for base course layer due to poor curing of material or cracking of asphalt.
The geotechnical shortcomings observed in infrastructure projects, mainly arising from the inadequate mechanical properties of weak soils, pose significant challenges that can lead to disastrous outcomes. Cement-stabilized soils have gained widespread application in response to these challenges. Therefore, this scholarly review paper …
The test models consisted of a triaxial geogrid reinforcement layer placed midway into the crushed rock layer (reinforced @0.10 m), another layer placed at the interface of the crushed rock layer and soft clay (reinforced @0.20 m), and reinforcement of two layers (between the crushed rock and soft clay layers and in the middle of the …
The presence of clay, silt, organic materials, sands and gravels all affect the binder performance. If significant quantities of clay and silt are present (plasticity index >20), the proper stabilising agents are hydrated lime, quicklime or a combination of lime and Portland cement. (lime reacts with the clay particles to reduce plasticity).
The inorganic binder stabilized material (IBSM) is a mixture of crushed or originally loose soils and/or aggregates, inorganic binding materials and water. It hardens after compaction and curing to obtain sufficient strength, and is commonly used as a pavement base...
This paper investigates the effect of subgrade soil stabilization on the performance and life extension of flexible pavements. Several variables affecting soil stabilization were considered, including subgrade soil type (CL or CH), additive type and content (3, 6, and 9% of hydrated lime, 5, 10, and 15% of class C fly ash (CFA), and 5, …
The main constituents of C&D materials are crushed bricks (CB), recycled concrete aggregates (RCA), and reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP) [5], [6]. ... replacement of weak soils or increasing the base layer thickness. RCA-clay mixtures may be used in lieu of cement-modified and lightly-stabilized clay soils in subbases and subgrades of …
The CS-stabilized clay after 3 W/D cycles and 120 days of curing showed strain hardening behaviour and high resistance to strain accumulation under repeated cyclic stresses and a similar trend is ...
However, cement-stabilized bases can also be the source of shrinkage cracks in the stabilized base layer, which can reflect through the asphalt surface. Thankfully, there are a number of measures that can be taken to minimize the chance that cracks will occur in a cement-stabilized material. These techniques include selecting the proper
the thickness between the clay particles is reduced. Cement can provide sufficient calcium ions to replace the monovalent cations on the surfaces of the clay particles. This ion exchange process occurs within hours, shrinking the layer of water be-tween the clay particles and reducing the plasticity of the soil/ aggregate (Figure 2a).
Rapid urbanization has resulted in a massive number of infrastructure projects throughout the country. Steel consumption has skyrocketed as a result of this urbanization and industrialization. India is currently the one of the world's largest steel producers. An integrated steel plant produces 2–4 tonnes of slag for every tonne of steel …

Moisture Content: The stabilized soil should achieve the soil's optimum moisture content range. This ensures the stability and performance of the stabilized layer under varying moisture conditions. Density: The compacted layer of stabilized soil should reach the desired density to provide adequate support and load-bearing capacity. …
Traditionally, a limiting threshold of the unconfined compressive strength test during the mixture design is defined to predict the cracking behavior of the stabilized layers. This study, however, explores practical techniques to measure the shrinkage strain in cement-treated granular materials with specific thermal cycle provisions for ...
2.1 Modified AASHTO Methods. In North America, the state of practice for the design of flexible paved roads with geogrid stabilization in the base layer is according to the AASHTO Guide for Design of Pavement Structures (AASHTO 1993), which has been aligned with the requirements of the AASHTO standard practice document R50-09 …
In order to investigate the properties of cement stabilized aggregate which contains crushed clay brick (CCB), natural coarse aggregate and fine aggregate (20%, 40%, 60%, 80% and by weight ...
RCA is commonly used in the unbound base or subbase layer in pavements. Lower quality RCA (i.e., from D-cracked pavement) can be used in subgrade soil stabilization. In this study, a clay subgrade soil was stabilized using RCA and three different cementitious materials (lime, Class C fly ash, and a combination of Portland …

Fatigue damage leads to a reduction in modulus of the cement-stabilized layers, thus affecting pavement response [15]. Potential methods that can be used for determining the modulus of cement-stabilized materials include the flexural beam, direct tension, indirect tensile, longitudinal vibration and the direct compression tests [16].
The maximum strengths of the stabilized clay are at about 1.2OWC whereas the maximum strength of the unstabilized clay is at OWC (maximum dry unit weight). ..., there is not sufficient water to develop a …
Stabilized open-graded drainage layers have very little aggregate passing the No. 200 sieve. Asphalt cement contents typically range between 1.6 and 1.8 percent by mass of aggregates. Cement treated open graded drainage layers are typically produced with a water to cement ratio of 0.37 and a cement content of 185 to 220 lbs/yd3 (Hein et …
