A Field Test for Bituminous Stabilization of Silty Soil
A silty soil in southeastern Minnesota was stabilized in the field by roadtar and asphalt. Six 1000-foot test sections were treated with bitumen in the upper six inches while two control sections were not treated. A gravel base and bituminous surface were then placed on the roadway. Variables made in the stabilized sections were the bituminous treatment and the thickness of the gravel base. Of primary importance in this project was the demonstration that this type of soil can be effectively stabilized by mixing with bituminous materials. (BPR abstract)
