Quality control of cement stabilised soil using non-destructive seismic tests
This paper describes a seismic based testing methodology for quality control of surface stabilised soil. Cement is mixed into the soil to increase the strength and to increase the usability of local soils in constructions like pavements, parking lots, storage buildings and other civil engineering structures. The compressive strength of the stabilised soil is highly dependent on the type of soil, moisture content, cement content, and compaction work, and can therefore vary significantly in the field. The authors perform quality control in the field by measuring the seismic velocity in the stabilised soil that has been correlated to compressive strength in a laboratory. Compared to perform core drilling for testing, this procedure samples a larger volume of the material in a non-destructive manner and has proved practical, faster, and more cost effective. The proposed methodology has been used successfully in several soil stabilisation projects in Sweden.
