STABILITY PROPERTIES OF UNCURED LIME-TREATED FINE-GRAINED SOILS

The early strength and deformation properties of uncured lime-soil mixtures and untreated soils were investigated. Linear regression equations were developed relating conepenetrometer test results to shear strength, California Bearing Ratio, and modulus of deformation. The significance of the study findings is examined relative to problems such as expediting construction, increasing in situ subgrade support, and constructing temporary roads.
