COURSE INTRODUCTION & OUTLINE:

Soil cement is an engineered construction material. It is a mix of pulverized natural soil with small amounts of Portland cement and water.
This Educational Webinar will expose soil-cement which is a highly compacted mixture of soil/aggregate, cement, and water. It is widely used as low-cost pavement base for roads, residential streets, parking areas, airports, shoulders, and materials-handling and storage areas. Its advantages of great strength and durability combine with low first costs to make it the outstanding value in its field. A thin bituminous surface is usually placed on the soil-cement to complete the pavement.
Soil-cement is sometimes called cement-stabilized base, or cement-treated aggregate base. Regardless of the name, the principles governing its composition and construction are the same.
