Mechanics properties of lime- fly ash stabilized soil are investigated. First, the chemical composition of fly ash are analyzed by spectral analysis test. Compaction experiments of all mix proportion projects are carried out in different water conditions to obtain the optimum water contents. Then the optimum mix proportion is obtained by the unconfined compressive strength and the compression rebound modulus test. Finally, the pavement structures design for a highway of lime- fly ash stabilized soil road sub-base is done. By the comparison, a conclusion can be drawn that lime-fly ash stabilized soil is suitable for flexible pavement or semi-rigid pavement because of its good strength and rigidity which can effectively reduce thickness of the lower pavement and basic deflection.

Abstract The rigid pavement is a pavement construction in which a concrete slab is used as the top layer, which is located above the foundation or directly above the subgrade, without or with an asphalt surface layer. One type of rigid pavement used in Indonesia is rigid pavement without using reinforcement which is usually used in areas with low traffic or residential areas. Pavement without using reinforcement is the small split tensile strength so that the part of the plate will experience cracks due to stresses that cannot be avoided from traffic loads. Therefore, it is necessary to have reinforcement on the concrete slab so that the cracks do not extend. In this research, the use of copper fiber waste from electronic cables as a substitute solution for reinforcement to be used as a mixture in concrete. The experiments were carried out using fiber with variations of 0%, 0.5%, 1%, and 1.5% of the total weight of concrete mixture material and then tested at 28 days of concrete age. This research showed the variation of fiber weight until 1,5% increase the split tensile strength up to 32,46% and the compressive strength up to 9,16%.

Contemporary trends in development and new material and technical solutions for road pavement should consider the permanent increase in the growth of traffic as well as aspects of environmental protection and balanced development. Nowadays, attempts are made towards estimation of the appropriate thickness for pavement construction already in the phase of its design. Flexible pavements are preferred over rigid concrete roads because of their certain advantages, such as they can be strengthened and improved in stages with the growth of traffic. Flexible pavements are less expensive in regards to their initial cost and maintenance. Concrete pavements are nowadays becoming more popular. The largest advantage for using rigid pavement is its durability and ability to hold its shape against traffic and difficult environmental conditions. Although concrete pavement is less expensive, it requires less maintenance and has a good design life. The main objective of this study is to present a comparative review on the suitability of pavement depending on various parameters such as material, loading, longer life, cost effectiveness etc.
