Found a publication here today titled “Chemical Stabilization of Inherently Weak Subgrade Soils for Road Construction – Applicability in Canada” which looks at Lime and Cement Stabilisation and how they can be beneficially used on soils for roads in Canada.
The paper “describes the soil stabilization process, including the physical alterations to the soil and the design process. The paper also presents case studies where chemical soil stabilization has been utilized as an alternative to “remove and replace” processes. Finally, the applicability of chemical soil stabilization techniques within Canada is discussed“.
The whole Soil Stabilisation process is described, including:
- Introduction – why Soil Stabilisation should be used and its many benefits over traditional construction methods
- The Chemical Reaction – how Soil Stabilisation works and the chemical reaction that takes place when introducing binders to the soil
- The Mix Design Process – testing considerations that should take place before treatment commences
- The Treatment Process – how Soil Stabilisation is actually carried out
- Case Studies – details of projects in Canada where Soil Stabilisation techniques have been utilised
Have a look and let us know what you think.
