  • 1 INTRODUCTION Soil stabilization is the process to improve the engineering properties of poor soils as well as enhancing good soils to meet specified requirements and reduce the construction time. Soil-cement is the simple method to improve the engineering properties of the soil by using highly-cemented mixture of soil, Portland cement, and water so that the mixture gains strength and durability rapidly. Soil-cement technology was first developed in the USA in 1935 for highway construction. This technology gained its worldwide popularity rapidly with the fields of application in developed countries. The purpose is for application in road construction resulting in increased bearing capacity of soft subgrade, enabling a reduction in the thickness of the base course. Polymer Chemroad is polymer-based mixture of latex and cellulose dispersed in water. It is formulated to stabilize the cement and in-situ soils with water for an ideal and high quality concrete-like road base which will make road building much cheaper and faster than conventional methods. Polymer Chemroad worked by cementing and curing a mixture of soil/aggregate with Portland cement, Polymer Chemroad and water. Polymer Chemroad improved the bonding efficiency of the cement to minimize the micro-crack in the soil-cement and resulting modulus of elasticity created the properties of flexibility with water proof mixture. Polymer Chemroad structure is able to use the locally-available soil mixed with cement and Polymer Chemroad for construction in order to have better road base. No extra expenses and delivery charges for other materials such as gravel, thus, save both time and money. This report presents the evaluations of test results of laterite soil sample for the basic properties as well as engineering properties of laterite soil and stabilized with Polymer Chemroad and cement in the laboratory test. The laboratory tests program included unconfined compressive strength test, California Bearing Ratio test, flexural-strength test, and permeability test. These laboratory tests examine the effect of percent cement by dry weight and percent of Polymer Chemroad in each sample. Subsequently, the test results were analyzed. However, the results presented in this report are representative only to the soil sample and the type of admixture provided by the client.

  • 2 BASIC PROPERTIES OF LATERITE SOIL SAMPLE The basic properties were determined to evaluate the characteristic of laterite soil samples. The tests were undertaken generally according to ASTM: American Society for Testing and Material, including Atterberg limits, specific gravity, particle size distribution, compaction, California Bearing Ratio test, and unconfined compressive strength test. ATTERBERG’S LIMIT TEST OF LATERITE SOIL SAMPLE Atterberg’s Limit Test (ASTM D4318) was performed to determine liquid limit, plastic limit and the plasticity of specimens in order to characterize its condition by water content. The result of liquid limit and plastic limit test are summarized in the spreadsheets as in Appendix A. Liquid limit test was performed with 4 different water contents. The Casagrande method was used to set speed and the number of bounces of the cup on the hard base counted. The rotation was continued until the groove in the soil flows and closes over a specified length. The number of blows of the cup was noted and a sample of the soil taken to determine the moisture content. The test was repeated at increasing water contents by adding water, each time noting the number of blows required to close the groove.

    Figure 1 Flow curve for liquid limit (LL) determination of laterite soil After testing, the water content of soil on an arithmetic scale, in percent, and corresponding number of blows on a logarithmic scale are plotted. The relevant points are connected and this line yielded the liquid limit at its intersection with the vertical of the 25 number of blows. Figure 1 shows the average liquid limit (LL) of 46.52% at 25 number of blows. Plastic limit test was performed with two different water contents that defined the moisture content, in percent, at which the soil crumbles, when rolled into 3.2 mm in diameter to determine the water content of a section of the thread. The average plastic limit (PL) for these specimens is 17.48 %.

  • 3 The plasticity index (PI) is the difference between the liquid limit and plastic limit of a soil (PI= LL- PL). From the results of liquid limit and plastic limit, plasticity index is 29.04%. SOIL CLASSIFICATION OF LATERITE SOIL SAMPLE In case of the particles with size larger than 75 µm (retained on sieve no. 200), the particle sizes were determined by “Sieve Analyses” (ASTM D422-63). Wet sieve analysis was applied for laterite soil samples. The soil sample was placed onto a sieve and rinsed by spraying water until water is clear. The soil sample which retained on the sieve was then air-dried and the particle size was determined by dry-sieve again. Sieve analysis is performed by shaking a sample of lateritic soil through a series of ten screens consisting of the following number of sieve: 3/4", 1/2", 3/8", 4, 10, 20, 40, 60, 100, and 200 with a pan at the bottom. After sieving, the material retained on each sieve was weighed and the masses recorded. The total mass percent of grains within the selected sieve sizes were calculated. Subtracting these percentages successively from 100% yielded the ordinates of the grain-size distribution curve. A point was marked on a semi-log graph for the percent passed through the sieve for each sieve size. Figure 2 Grain size distribution curve Sieve analysis test result was given in Appendix B which shows the percent finer or percent passing of sieve in each size. Figure 2 shows a grain size distribution curve for laterite soil sample as percent finer by weight with the particle size decreasing from left to right on the horizontal axis.

  • 4 For this laterite soil samples, percent passing sieve No. 200 and No. 4 are 37.90% and 76.76%, respectively. The basic properties from Atterberg’s Limit test are as follows: LL = 46.52% and PI =29.04%. According to unified classification system the soil can be classified this soil as clayey sand (SC) which has percent of gravel 23.24% or it can be classified as clayey sand with gravel. For AASHTO soil classification, can be identified soil as A-7-6 which is clayey soil. Group index can be defined as 5 that is indicated quality of this laterite soil. Thus, this laterite soil is suitable for highway subgrade material. SPECIFIC GRAVITY TEST OF LATERITE SOIL SAMPLE The definition of specific gravity is the ratio of the weight in air of a given volume of a soil at a stated temperature to the weight in air of an equal volume of distilled water at a stated temperature. The specific gravity of soils determined by means of a pycnometer (ASTM D 854-58). The result of the tests is given in Appendix C which has 2.68 on average specific gravity. COMPACTION CHARACTERISTIC OF LATERITE SOIL SAMPLE A representative portion of the laterite soil sample provided was taken for compaction test, prior to the preparation of specimens such as unconfined compression test, California Bearing Ratio Test, flexural-strength test, and permeability test. Modified Proctor Compaction tests (ASTM D1557) were conducted, and the results of the tests are given in Appendix D. The compaction curve of the soil sample is shown in Fig. 3, which demonstrated maximum dry density (γd,max) and optimum water content (OMC) of 1.945 t/m3

  • 5 CALIFORNIA BEARING RATIO (CBR) OF LATERITE SOIL SAMPLE California Bearing Ratio (CBR) test (ASTM D1883) was determined by conducting a load penetration test in the laboratory. The CBR value of a compacted soil is an indicator of soil strength and bearing capacity and is widely used in the design of base and sub-base material for pavement. Based on the optimum moisture content (OMC) and the maximum dry density from the modified Proctor compaction test, all the specimens were prepared and compacted by using cylindrical mold of 152.4 mm inner diameter and 177.8 mm height. Soil was placed in the cylindrical mold in five layers and each layer was compacted according to the procedure of modified Proctor compaction at 12, 25 and 56 blows per layer. Then, the specimens were soaked in water before testing. Each specimen was loaded into the penetration test machine and subjected to an axial loading to determine the strength of the specimen.

UNCONFINED COMPRESSION STRENGTH OF LATERITE SOIL SAMPLE The specimen for unconfined compression test were prepared based on the optimum moisture content (OMC) and the maximum dry density from the modified Proctor compaction test. Each specimens were prepared using cylindrical mold having inner diameter of 101.6 mm and height of 116.4 mm. The prepared soil was placed in the cylindrical mold in five layers and each layer was compacted according to the procedure of modified Proctor compaction at 12, 25 and 56 blows per layer. All samples were ensured to have smooth ends that are perpendicular to the axis of the sample. Then, specimens were subjected to an axial loading at the testing machine.

  • 7 LATERITTIC SOIL MIXED WITH POLYMER CHEMROAD AND CEMENT To confirm the properties of lateritic soil mixed with Polymer Chemroad and cement, the specimens were tested as follows: 1. Unconfined Compressive Strength Test (ASTM D2166-85) Unconfined compressive strength (qu) of the soil at modified Proctor compaction mixed with 5% cement by dry weight with 0% and 5% of Polymer Chemroad were tested after curing at 7 days and 28 days. 2. California Bearing Ratio (CBR) Test (ASTM D1883) CBR value was evaluated on 5% cement by dry weight with 0% and 5% of Polymer Chemroad compacted at 95% of maximum dry density by modified Proctor compaction for soaked samples after curing at 28 days. 3. Flexural-Strength Test (ASTM D1635) Flexural-strength test was conducted on samples mixed with 10% cement by dry weight with 0% and 10% of Polymer Chemroad after curing at 28 days. 4. Permeability Test (ASTM D5084) Permeability test was performed to obtain the coefficient of permeability (k) of specimens mixed with 5% cement by dry weight with 0% and 5% of Polymer Chemroad after curing at 28 days.

  • 8 UNCONFINED COMPRESSION STRENGTH (ASTM D2166-85) AT OPTIMUM COMPACTION The specimen for unconfined compression test were prepared based on the optimum moisture content (OMC) and the maximum dry density from the modified Proctor compaction test. Each specimens were prepared using cylindrical mold having inner diameter of 101.6 mm and height of 116.4 mm by using 5% cement by dry weight and 0% and 5% of Polymer Chemroad. In the case of untreated specimen (0% of Polymer Chemroad), an air-dried soil sample was prepared added with water at an amount just enough to subject the soil sample at the optimum moisture content (modified Proctor compaction). After balancing the water content by hand mixing, the prepared soil was then in placed in the cylindrical mold in five layers and each layer was compacted according to the procedure of modified Proctor compaction. After compaction, the mold was removed and the specimens were sealed tightly in plastic sheets to prevent loss of moisture due to surface evaporation and then cured for periods of 7 days and 28 days.

    In the case of treated specimen (5% of Polymer Chemroad), after adding the necessary amount of water that will subject the prepared soil to the optimum water content (modified Proctor compaction), the Polymer Chemroad is added and mixed into the soil. The amount of admixture was determined based on the target admixture content, which is defined by percentage ratio of the dry weight of Polymer Chemroad to the dry unit weight of the soil. The prepared treated soil was then placed in the cylindrical mold in five layers and each layer was compacted according to the procedure of modified Proctor compaction. Subsequent steps are the same to those in the case of untreated specimen as discussed previously in the preceeding paragraph.

    After 7 and 28 days curing, the specimens were removed from curing room and were prepared for testing. Prior to unconfined compression test, all samples were ensured to have smooth ends that are perpendicular to the axis of the sample. A typical set up of unconfined compression test and the typical sketches of specimens at failure are shown in Appendix G.

  • 10 The relationship of average unconfined compression strength with admixture content for 7 days and 28 days curing period is shown in Fig. 5. The spreadsheets of unconfined compression tests are given in Appendix G corresponding to tested specimens with Polymer Chemroad contents of 0% and 5%. It is evident in Fig. 5 that the average strength of untreated sample for 7 days and 28 days are 24.62 ksc and 34.15 ksc, respectively, when compacted at optimum moisture content (modified Proctor compaction) In addition, the treated sample with 5% of Polymer Chemroad content has attained average strength ranging from 27.56 ksc to 35.56 ksc, after curing in 7 days and 28 days.

    As shown in Fig. 6, the relationships of average modulus of elasticity (E50) for untreated (5% cement by dry weight and 0% of Polymer Chemroad) specimens were 1200.34 ksc and 3058.82 ksc for 7 days and 28 days, respectively. When the sample is mixed with 5% cement by dry weight and 5% of Polymer Chemroad, the average modulus of elasticity (E50

    The specimen for California Bearing Ratio (CBR) test were prepared based on the optimum moisture content (OMC) and the maximum dry density from the modified compaction test. Each specimens were compacted by using cylindrical mold of 152.4 mm inner diameter and 177.8 mm height. The soil samples with 5% cement by dry weight and 0% and 5% of Polymer Chemroad contents were mixed by hand carefully with optimum moisture content (modified Proctor compaction) in order to have a homogeneous sample. After mixing, the prepared soil was then in placed in the cylindrical mold in five layers and each layer was compacted according to the procedure of modified Proctor compaction at 12, 25 and 56 blows per layer. Then, the mold and the specimens were sealed tightly in plastic sheets to prevent loss of moisture due to surface evaporation and then cured for periods 28 days. Then, the specimens were soaked in water before testing. Each specimen was loaded into the machine and subjected to an axial loading to determine the strength of the specimen.

  • 12 FLEXURAL-STRENGTH TEST (ASTM D1635) The flexural-strength test was conducted to determine the ability to resist an applied bending force to specimen with 10% cement by dry weight and 0% and 10% of Polymer Chemroad in accordance with ASTM D 1635 standards. The specimen dimensions utilized were 100x100 mm in cross section and 500 mm in length. The specimens were sealed in plastic sheets to prevent loss of moisture due to surface evaporation and then cured for 28 days. During testing, the specimen was placed in the loading platform and was adjusted to ensure that the upper-end platen gets into contact with the specimen at the center by the loading nose in order to ensure three points bending. The specimen loaded at the center span until the specimen failed. Results of Flexural-Strength Tests Table 3 Results

    In this test, the fracture occurs at the middle third of the span length when load was applied at the center span as shown in Appendix I. From Table 3, the flexural strength tests results were 0.022 and 0.030 ksc for untreated and treated specimen with 10% of Polymer Chemroad, respectively. It can be seen that the treated specimen has higher flexural strength and also higher modulus of rupture. PERMEABILITY TEST (ASTM D5084) Permeability test was conducted to determine the coefficient of permeability (k) of soil that allows fluid to flow. The admixture content with 5% concrete by dry weight and 0% and 5% of Polymer Chemroad were obtained. After mixing, the prepared soil was placed in the cylindrical mold of 50 mm in diameter and 100 mm in height which the total weight is calculated from compaction test results. After modified Proctor compaction, the mold was removed and the specimens were sealed in plastic bag to prevent loss of moisture due to surface evaporation and then cured for period 28 days. An apparatus was provided in which the specimen and porous end pieces, enclosed by a membrane sealed to the cap and base, then specimens were pressurized to determine permeability by controlled fluid pressures .

    • It was confirmed that the average unconfined compressive strength of treated specimens with 5% cement by dry weight and 5% of Polymer Chemroad were increased by 11.94 percent and 4.3 percent after curing 7 days and 28 days, respectively. Furthermore, the average modulus of elasticity has increased 62.74 percent and 73.99 percent after curing 7 days and 28 days, respectively. It can be seen that specimens with Polymer Chemroad gain strength and durability rapidly.

    , and permeability test to ensure the engineering properties of soil-cement stabilized with Polymer Chemroad. Based from the results in these tests, the following conclusions can be made:

    • The California Bearing Ratio (CBR) test implied that the treated specimens with 5% cement by dry weight and 5% Polymer Chemroad improved the CBR values better than untreated ones with higher strength of soils and increased load carrying capacity of soils.

    • Higher flexural strength was achieved after curing 28 days in treated specimen with 10% cement by dry weight and 10% of Polymer Chemroad which means Polymer Chemroad can create flexibility as well as enhancing good soil properties.

    • The hydraulic conductivity was reduced for specimen with 5% cement by dry weight and 5% of Polymer Chemroad. The Polymer Chemroad improved the water proofing properties of the mixture.

    • From the testing results, the Polymer Chemroad has improved the engineering properties of soil-cement mixture.

    Applications of this soil stabilization in other locations, with other soils, weather conditions, etc., may produce significantly different results. Engineers experienced in soil stabilization should be involved in any further studies or applications of this nature, especially during placement, mixing, and compaction of the base course of road pavement. Soil conditions are known to vary and only an engineer experienced in the field of soil stabilization can provide the judgment necessary to ensure a successful project. In some types of soils, these testing programs may need to be repeated to ensure that the results are reliable and suited to the particular site.
