Study on Performances of Cement Stabilized Aggregate with Different Aggregate Gradation
Publication: Logistics: The Emerging Frontiers of Transportation and Development in China
Abstract
The ratio of coarse aggregate and fine aggregate has great influence on the performance of cement stabilized crush stone. This paper presents the results of a laboratory evaluation of cement stabilized crush stone with three kinds of aggregate gradation. Samples were prepared using 4, 5, 6 or 6,8, 10% cement which depend on different aggregate gradation and were cured for 7, 28, and 90 days at room temperature. All the samples were made using vibration compactor. Result shows: at the same level of cement contents and maintenance conditions, dense mixture with few coarse aggregate and more fine aggregate has better compressive strength and compression resistant resilience modulus, but its anti-cracking and anti-erosion performance is worse; dense mixture with more coarse aggregate which can form "framework structure" in the mix has slightly bigger compressive strength and compression resistant resilience modulus than the former, at the same time its anti-cracking and anti-erosion performance is improved; porous mixture which has more coarse aggregate and few fine aggregate has minimum compressive strength and compression resistant resilience modulus, but its anti-cracking and anti-erosion performance is best.
