Abstract:

The increasing demand for materials and the increasing quantity of waste generated has created opportunities for the use of alternative materials in road construction. Industrial by-products for use in pavement bases are assessed. The objectives of the research were to (a) review industrial by-products for possible use in bound pavement bases in the U.K., (b) evaluate the structural properties and workability of selected materials identified in this review by laboratory and pilot scale pavement testing, and (c) relate material performance to that of standard materials used in pavement bases. The work used not only conventional roadbase binders, such as cement and bitumen, but also self-cementing materials and mixtures incorporating alternative hydraulic binders, such as blast-furnace slag/lime and pulverized fuel ash/lime. The performance of all these mixtures is described.
