• Abstract:
  The 1966-67 plan of research for Phase 2 of Research Study 2-8-65-81 outlined an investigation to determine the limiting ranges of natural soils which can be fired to produce aggregates suitable for use in flexible base materials. This is a progress report of that investigation. Its purpose is to report the more significant findings to date, so that early utilization of the research may be possible. The findings are listed briefly below. They are based on limited study and should be considered preliminary and subject to change with future research.
