This paper presents an analysis of the stabilization of different soil types using a hydraulic binder. A study was carried out on soils that can be classified into two groups: cohesive and ...non-cohesive soils. Clay soils of medium and low plasticity according to the USCS classification were used as cohesive materials, while the sandy material containing dust was considered as non-cohesive material. Samples were taken from fifteen locations in Vojvodina province, Serbia. A hydraulic binder was used as a binder based on cement and lime. The amounts of the binder were estimated at 3, 5, 7, and 9%. In order to determine the basic physical and mechanical characteristics of the specimens, the following tests were performed: unconfined compressive strength after 7 and 28 days, indirect tensile strength after 7 and 28 days, as well as the California Bearing Ratio. Based on the obtained results, it can be concluded that increasing the amount of binder results in an increase in the subgrade load-bearing capacity. However, it should be emphasized that the subgrade containing non-cohesive material had a lower growth in the load-bearing capacity than those with the cohesive material.
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.
