Benefication of shale aggregate and production of artificial aggregate

Gokhale, Y. C. / Shukla, R. S. / Jain, P. K.

Abstract In the Union Territory of Mizoram of India, the geological formation consists of silty soil and shale aggregate. On account of its poor quality, the shale aggregate is unsuitable for road construction. When used even in base courses, the aggregate absorbs water, becomes brittle, gets degraded under traffic and softens. Due to difficult terrain, transport of good quality aggregates from out-side becomes uneconomical. The solution of the problem was attempted in two directions viz. (i) to render shale aggregate impervious to water by bituminous treatment, and (ii) to produce articifial aggregates out of locally available silty soil.
