Study of Materials for Road Construction. A Descriptive Study of Materials & its implementation in Road Construction projects

      Аннотация: The scarcity of soil which suits for construction activities by fulfilling geotechnical characteristics is forcing the pavement engineers to look for alternative materials for construction activity. On the other hand due to the rapid industrialization there is sharp increase in the number of crushing units, steel producing factories in so many states and the country as well. The crusher dust and Blast furnace slag obtained from these industries are collected and tested for various geotechnical characterisations. The suitability of partial or full replacement is checked by conducting CBR tests on various mix portions.
