Abstract:This report is an evaluation of the recently developed "Louisiana Slope Value Method".
The conclusion drawn are based on data from 637 separate samples representing nearly all major soil groups in Louisiana that are suitable for cement stabilization.
These data show that more than 92 percent of all cement contents recommended were within plus or minus 2 percent cement of the cement contents called for by the Wetting-Drying test. It was also demonstrated that in most cases greater repeatability was obtained with the Louisiana Slope Value Method than with the Wetting-Drying test.
Normal testing time for the "Louisiana Slope Value Method" is about eight days which is about one-fourth the time required for the Wetting-Drying test. Testing for the Louisiana Slope Value Method is easy to perform and use of the developed correlation curves and tables is simple and rapid.
