Overview
Background & policy context:
In the early research work Nr. 22/88 (VSS-Report Nr. 349) the Heidelberger cement (Germany) and several Swiss portland cements have been investigated in the laboratory and in the field. The results showed that by careful choice of cement types, cracks due to shrinkage could be significantly reduced. The present research aims to develop recommendations pertaining to the kinds of cement that are suitable for application in soil cement.
Objectives:
Further investigations of the influence of various domestic and foreign types of cement to the formation of cracks in cement stabilized layers, in order to recommend suitable types of cement for the production of cement stabilization.
