“…The Portland Cement Association Handbook, 1956 recommends the amount of soil to be used for stabilisation based on the classification of soil as per AASHTO. [7] Defined durability as the capacity of soil to hold constancy and integrity even after number of years of exposure to the action of weathering. [4] defined it as capability of material to sustain its integrity and uphold satisfactory residual strength in long-term against harsh climatic condition.…”

The development and growth in economy of the country is primarily depended on the connectivity within the country and region around. The basic and most utilized for of transportation used is the roadways and highways transportation. Good quality metal aggregate is required in large quantity for construction of roads which is scarce in nature. One alternative to this problem is to use the locally available soil by stabilising it with help of cementitious material so that it can be effectively used. The strength and durability are the basic requirements for any stabilised material to be used for road construction and thus in this paper the strength and durability characteristic of 3 soils treated with cement has been tested. The test used for strength evaluation is CBR test & 7 day UCS test and wet-dry durability test has been considered for durability evaluation for cement treated soils. The minimum dosage of cement based on then residual strength and mass loss percent criteria was calculated. It was reported that the amount of cement required for stabilisation is largely depended on the type of soil and vary accordingly.

“…Thus studies have been carried out to evaluate the durability of soil-cement mixtures, D r a f t 4 most of them (e.g., Starcher et al 2016;Jamshidi et al 2016) centered on two ASTM standards: wetting and drying (ASTM 2015) and freezing and thawing (ASTM 2013a). Shihata and Baghdadi (2001) immersed sets of silty sand-cement specimens in saline water for different durations prior to running 12 wetting-drying cycles followed by brushing strokes. The authors found that soils with larger amounts of fines presented higher weight loss values in such tests.…”

Durability, strength, and stiffness of compacted gold tailings – cement mixes

Compaction and Portland cement addition are amongst promising ground improvement procedures for enhancing the mechanical properties of gold tailings. The present investigation intends to compute the impact of Portland cement content and dry density on the properties (durability, stiffness, and strength) of compacted gold tailings – cement mixes. Its main significant addition to knowledge is the quantification of accumulated loss of mass (ALM) after wetting–drying cycles, shear modulus at small strains, and unconfined compressive strength (qu) as a function of the porosity/cement index. In addition, the existence of an exclusive relation connecting ALM divided by the number of wetting–drying cycles and porosity/cement index is revealed empirically. This broadens the applicability of such an index by demonstrating that it controls not only mechanical but also endurance performance of compacted gold tailings – Portland cement mixes.

Present investigation intends to examine the mechanical behaviour of compacted coal fly ash -carbide lime mixes to assess their potential use as a sub-base/base material for low volume roads. This study plans to compute the impact of carbide lime content and dry density on the properties (durability and strength) of compacted coal fly ashcarbide lime blends. Its main significant addition to knowledge is quantifying the accumulated loss of mass (ALM) after wetting/drying cycles, tensile (q t ) and compressive strength (q u ) as a function of the porosity/lime index. A specific q t /q u matching 0.13 was established, being autonomous of the porosity/lime index. In addition, it is empirically revealed the existence of an exclusive relation connecting accumulated loss of mass divided by the number of wetting/drying cycles and porosity/lime index. This broadens the applicability of such index by demonstrating it controls endurance performance of compacted coal fly ash -lime blends.
