Abstract

In order to optimize the material design for cement-fly ash stabilized crushed-stones, the strong interlocked coarse skeleton gradation was put forward based on the numerical experimentation method. In addition, the vibration method was employed to carry out the experimental study on the mechanical property of the cement-fly ash stabilized crushed-stones. Besides, the influencing regularities of the mixed amount of cement and fly ash on the cement-fly ash stabilized crushed-stones were researched. The result showed that the numerically simulated coarse aggregate gradation had great interlocked power, and the fine aggregate content of 31%±3% had stabilized mechanical property. Then, strong interlocked skeleton dense gradation of the cement-fly ash stabilized crushed-stones was put forward. Furthermore, when the 7d compression strength was used as the research indicator, the best proportion of the cement and fly ash was 1:0.5~1:1, and when the ultimate strength was used as the research indicator, then, the best ratio of the cement and fly ash was 1:1~1:1.5. Therefore, the cement dosage was advised to be 3~4% and the mixture amount of fly ash was 4~5%.
