Criteria for Emulsified Asphalt Stabilization of Sandy Soils
With the increased interest in emulsions in soil stabilization due in no small way to the influence by the Federal Energy Administration and the EPA plus recommendation by the Federal Highway Administration, the need for appropriate mix design criteria for emulsion treated aggregates becomes apparent. In the first phase of the investigation various factors affecting stabilization of sands with emulsion are studied. A complete discussion of these results appears in the interim report of this project (1976); however, a brief summary is presented herein for ready reference. Using the test results in five naturally occuring soils and one synthetic aggregate mix design criteria for sands and sandy soils are proposed in the first part of the report. The first phase of this report concludes with a step-by-step procedure for mix design of CETM (Cement-modified Emulsion Treated Material). In order to verify and substantiate the proposed design criteria, and to gain insight into the construction control specifications the base layer of a three-mile section of a secondary road in Calhoun County was constructed with CETM. In spite of the inclement weather during construction period, the CETM mixture proved itself to be a satisfactory material for base construction.
