Abstract:

Poor subgrade soil conditions can result in inadequate pavement support and reduce pavement life. Soils may be improved through the addition of chemical or cementitious additives. These chemical additives range from waste products to manufactured materials and include lime, Class C fly ash, Portland cement and proprietary chemical stabilizers. These additives can be used with a variety of soils to help improve their native engineering properties. The effectiveness of these additives depends on the soil treated and the amount of additive used. This report contains a summary of the performance of lime, cement, Class C fly ash, and Permazyme 11-X used with a wide range of soils. Each of the chemical additives tested is designed to combine with the soil to improve the texture, increase strength and reduce swell characteristics. These products were combined with a total eight different soils with classifications of CH, CL, ML, SM, and SP.
