• Abstract:
  The objectives of this research were to further evaluate the characteristics of locally produced fly ash and to develop test procedures which would expedite the evaluation of fly ash stabilized soils. Because cement and lime stabilization techniques are well established, comparisons of fly ash stabilization methods with these materials were also necessary. To accomplish this, information on other tests currently being performed were reviewed, tested and evaluated to determine their applicability. A test approach is proposed for evaluating the fly ash potential as an alternative to other conventional materials and methods. Long term effects are also addressed to determine whether there is continued strength gain or possible deterioration with time.
