Load-bearing consolidated soil
A soil stabilisation and consolidation method to form a load bearing layer of pre-determined thickness being resistant to water penetration, preferable for a soil subbed used in creating roadways and other ground structures. The method includes determining a composition of the soil by identifying components within the soil including clay, sand, silt, gravel, stones and rock and comparing the composition with and adjusting the composition towards a reference composition by adding a combination of soil components. An agglomeration liquid containing water, aminoalkyl compound, alkylammonium chloride and a solvent and a consolidation powder containing alkylammonium chloride, supplementary cementitious material and lime containing material are mixed with the soil to a pre-determined depth and to a depth equal to or less than the pre-determined depth. The soil is mechanically compacted after the mixing. The supplementary cementitious material may contain any one or a combination of Portland cement, fly ash or pulverised fly ash, slag, silica fume and metakaolin and the lime containing compound may comprise hydrated lime or a material comprising calcium hydroxide.
