RESULTS OF LABORATORY STUDIES ON THE USE OF FLY-ASH IN THE CONSTRUCTION OF PAVEMENT LAYERS /IN FRENCH/
AFTER BRIEFLY RECALLING THE ORIGIN AND PROPERTIES OF FLY-ASH, RESULTS ARE PRESENTED OF A STUDY PERFORMED IN 1963 AND 1964 AT THE LCPC CONCERNING: (1) THE USE OF THE POZZOLANIC PROPERTIES OF FLY-ASH FOR THE TREATMENT OF DUNE SAND AND SILT, AND (2) THE USE OF FLY-ASH AND AGGREGATE OR BASIC CONSTRUCTION MATERIAL. THE POZZOLANIC ACTION OF FLY-ASH RESULTS IN IMPROVED APTITUDE FOR COMPACTION. ATTENTION IS DRAWN TO THE FACT THAT SINCE THE ABOVE TESTS WERE CARRIED OUT, THE USE OF FLY-ASH IN ROAD CONSTRUCTION HAS INCREASED CONSIDERABLY, AND FORMULAE FOR USE HAVE BECOME MORE NUMEROUS. SPECIAL MENTION IS MADE OF THE USE OF FAT LIME, IN PREFERENCE TO CEMENT, FOR THE TREATMENT OF FLY-ASH. /LCPC/RRL/
