CEMENT STABILIZATION OF SOILS

BODENVERFESTIGUNG MIT ZEMENT

The paper describes a method of testing the cement content by means of the calorimeter. The reaction of soil-cement to hydrochloric acid releases a certain amount of heat by which the cement content can be determined. Sponsored by the Forschungsgesellschaft fuer das Strassenwesen, research was carried out on 6 different types of soil and 4 different types of cement. This method can be used for quickly determining cement contents on construction sites. /TRRL/
