GUIDE FOR THE DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION OF CEMENT-STABILIZED FLY ASH PAVEMENTS

The pozzolanic properties of fly ash can be utilized to produce strong and durable base courses for roadways and parking lots. Procedures are presented for developing a construction mix of fly ash, cement, and water which meets established strength/durability criteria. Testing programs are outlined for fly ash from single and multiple sources. Pavement thickness design procedures based on the Portland Cement Association method for soil-cement pavements are presented, with appropriate design charts for determining required base course and bituminous wearing surface thicknesses.
