SOIL-CEMENT BASES UNDER THIN BITUMINOUS SURFACING

The deformation properties of soil-cement bases, in particular bases under thin bituminous surfacing, are investigated under repeated dynamic compressive loading. The principal variables considered are stress intensity and frequency, and cement content. Analyses of the compressive strength, Poisson's ratio and modulus of resilient deformation, show that soil-cement bases can be confidently employed under thin bituminous surfacing within stated limitations of minimum critical strength and maximum resilient deformation.
