Lime, cement, and lime-cement stabilization of a clay soil
… stabilized with various percentages of lime, cement, and combinations of the two. In both cases where the additives were added separately to the soil, the percentages used were 5 and 10 per cent by dry weight of soil. In the additive combination study, lime-cement percentage additions were …

Cement Stabilization of Aggregate Base Materials Blended with Reclaimed Asphalt Pavement
… of reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP) content and cement content on the strength and durability of recycled aggregate base materials. Specifically, the unconfined compressive strength (UCS) and final dielectric value in the Tube Suction Test (TST) were measured in a full-factorial experimental …

Stabilization of Soft Clay Subgrades in Virginia Phase I Laboratory Study
… soils can be treated with traditional lime and cement stabilization methods. Alternatives, including lignosulfonates and polymers, are available, but their performance record is mixed and solid engineering data is lacking, which prevents reliable design. The goal of this research was to screen a …

Early Age Assessment of Cement Treated Materials
… to avoid the occurrence of early-age damage, cement-treated base (CTB) materials must be allowed to cure for a period of time before the pavement can be opened to traffic. The purpose of this research was to evaluate the utility of the soil stiffness gauge (SSG), heavy Clegg impact soil tester …

Development of a Frost Heave Test Apparatus
… the apparatus to investigate the efficacy of cement stabilization in reducing the frost susceptibility of a Montana silt and to validate the functionality of the finished device. Results from the testing indicate that adding 2.0 percent cement actually induces frost heave in excess of that …

Laboratory Comparison of Full Depth Reclamation Stabilization Techniques Using Arkansas Field Materials
… a new, stronger stabilized base course. Common stabilization techniques include the addition of asphalt emulsion, asphalt foam, or cement. Using the North Carolina emulsion FDR mix design, the Wirtgen foam FDR mix design, and the Portland Cement Association cement FDR mix design, field materials …

Assessment of the Tube Suction Test for Identifying Non-Frost-Susceptible Soils Stabilized with Cement
… the duration of freezing surface temperatures. Cement stabilization is one technique used to mitigate the effects of frost heave. The tube suction test (TST) is one possible method for determining the frost susceptibility of soils in the laboratory. The purpose of this research was to assess the …

Evaluation of Laboratory Durability Tests for Stabilized Subgrade Soils
The Portland Cement Association commissioned a research project at Brigham Young University to compare selected laboratory durability tests available for assessing stabilized subgrade materials. Improved understanding of these tests is needed to enable more objective selection of durability tests …
