Title: ESTIMATING THE DESIGN LIFE OF A PROTOTYPE CEMENT-STABILIZED PHOSPHOGYPSUM PAVEMENT
Accession Number: 00670362
Record Type: Component
Availability: Find a library where document is available Abstract: Cement-stabilized phosphogypsum (CSPG) mixtures are demonstrated to have sufficient strength at the modified Proctor compaction level to satisfy the Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development design unconfined compressive strength (UCS) criteria of 1.7 MPa at 7 days for stabilized base material. With 8-12% cement, at 95% of modified Proctor maximum dry unit weight, CSPG had greater resilient modulus and UCS values than the commonly used river silt. Life estimates for a prototype road were highly dependent on the bearing capacity of the subgrade soil. The CSPG base produced acceptable estimated design lives for secondary roads at an attractive cost compared with conventional limestone aggregate.
