Title: EFFECT OF LIME TREATMENT ON THE RESILIENT BEHAVIOR OF FINE-GRAINED SOILS
Accession Number: 00133996
Record Type: Component
Availability: Find a library where document is available Abstract: Lime treatment of fine-grained subgrade soils has definite potential for beneficially altering subgrades softening due to high moisture contents and freeze-thaw action. The effects of high moisture content and freeze-thaw cycles on the resilient response of a number of untreated and lime-treated soils are examined. A finite element procedure is used to evaluate the structural response of a flexible pavement on untreated and lime-treated subgrades. The analysis reveals that high moisture contents and freeze-thaw action in the subgrade have a detrimental effect on the magnitude of pavement response parameters and that lime treatment of the upper layer of the subgrade causes a substantial improvement in pavement response.
