Cement is widely recognized as a reliable soil stabilizer that brings strength and long lasting resiliency to pavement subgrades. However extremely high PI soils, when wet, are problematic for mixing with cement alone. Blending lime first then adding cement for immediate strength is proving to be both a reliable and economical method to guarantee success for pavement projects. This presentation will show several examples of this method being adopted by TxDOT, counties, and cities across Texas. The program will discuss the laboratory testing and design involved with the method and construction practices.
