Lime modification of problem laterite
Abstract An investigation into the potentials of modifying problem laterite using hydrated lime is presented. Details of test methods and materials are given. Results presented show that problem laterite classified as A-7-6 soil can be modified with 3% lime using the grain-size and plasticity criteria of the Highway Research Board limits for soils that can be stabilized with Portland Cement. Results presented also indicate that using only the plasticity criteria, the soil can be modified with 2% lime.
