Soil-Cement Inspector's Manual
The second edition of the Soil-Cement Inspector's
Manual outlines and illustrates procedures for inspection
of soil-cement construction. Each step of proper inspection
and control is explained; sample problems are given showing
how to compute material quantities and perform field tests.
Tables and charts to simplify these calculations are also
included.

Soil-Cement Construction Handbook
This engineering bulletin provides detailed
information on surveying and sampling based on over 50 years
of field experience in the construction of many million square
yards of soil-cement. It explains what basic requirements
must be met; including thorough pulverization and mixing,
adequate cement content, proper moisture content, adequate
compaction, and proper curing. This FREE publication will
show how high-quality soil-cement can be built rapidly and
easily under a wide variety of conditions.

Soil-Cement Laboratory Handbook
The Soil-Cement Laboratory Handbook handbook,
in conjunction with the Soil-Cement Inspector's Manual and
the Soil-Cement Construction Handbook, presents in practical
form the complete procedure for testing and constructing soil-cement
paving. It is devoted principally to the methods of making
laboratory tests for determining the control factors described
in the Soil-Cement Construction Handbook; pulverization, mixing,
cement content, moisture content, compaction, and curing.

Thickness Design For Soil-Cement Pavements
Because Soil-Cement Pavements possess their
own unique structural characteristics this brochure was
written
to provide engineers with a procedure for determining the
thickness design of soil-cement roads, streets, and parking
lots by analyzing factors such as subgrade strength, pavement
design period, traffic, base course thickness, and bituminous
surface thickness.

Properties and Uses of Cement-Modified Soil
Usually referred to as CMS, "Cement-Modified
Soil" is a term used to describe a soil or aggregate
that has been treated with a relatively small proportion
of
portland cement with the objective of amending problem soils
and substandard materials so that they are suitable for
use
in construction. This pamphlet provides technical data for
engineering reference during your CMS project.

Recycling Failed Flexible Pavements with Cement
Are you repairing a heavily traveled surface
troubled by rutting, heaving, potholes and severe cracking?
This could be a result of deteriorated or inadequate base
course. Instead of covering the base course with a thin
asphalt
overlay or a thick overlay or removing and disposing of the
existing pavement why not recycle the existing asphalt
and underlying base into a new soil-cement base? This
free pamphlet shows you how.
