Analysis of the hydraulic binder use for base strengthening in pavement constructions

Abstract

The paper presents the application of cement stabilization in the world and in our country. In addition to the literature review, basic physical - mechanical tests of the pavement base without the use of hydraulic binder and with the use of hydraulic binder with different percentages of participation (2, 4, and 6%) were given. The hydraulic binder of the manufacturer LaFarge HRB 12.5 was used as a binder, and the material on which this binder was tested is a clay material taken in the vicinity of Belgrade. Using this binder, it was concluded that any percentage of binder leads to significant improvement of the placenta and thus improves the load-bearing capacity of the pavement structure.
