In seasonally frozen regions, road construction often suffers from low strength,lack of durability, etc. Improving the typical clay’s workability in Changchun with lime and the Base-Seal stabilizer (BS-100) shows promising results. A comprehensive investigation to assess the soil characteristics influence is undertaken, so as the lime and liquid stabilizer (BS-100) content on the physical properties of stabilized soils in seasonally frozen regions. The optimum mix proportions, unconfined compressive strength, splitting strength, modulus of resilience, freeze-thaw action, water resistance and penetration-resistance were outlined. By comparing with current specifications, the Base-Seal stabilized soil as base material has higher early strength, higher after-strength and better frost stability.The results can be applied in road construction in seasonally frozen regions.

TerraZyme is a completely different and new material for constructing road compared to the traditional road construction materials. Through the indoor and field tests of TerraZyme solidification soil, the road performance (e.g., unconfined compression strength, CBR value,modulus of resilience, hydraulic conductivity etc) of TerraZyme solidification soil was analyzed systematically. Meanwhile, the changing patterns in the case of various construction technology and different maintenance conditions were discussed. Then, the quality control index and measure for construction were presented. By validating the adaptability of TerraZyme solidification technology in engineering practice, it showed that the technology of TerraZyme solidification soil have many advantages such as no pollution, simple and convenient construction, higher solidified strength, good water stability and lower cost. Therefore, it can be broadly popularized and applied in the engineering practice.

Cement-stabilized macadam is the most widely used road base material in road engineering. The current study investigated the impact of fiber diameter on its performance. The authors prepared polyester fibers with diameters of 20, 35, 70, and 105 μm and added them to cement-stabilized macadam. Then, the indoor shrinkage tests and mechanical property tests at different ages were conducted. Then, the property changes of the polyester-reinforced cement-stabilized macadam were analysed. The water loss rate of the polyester-reinforced cement-stabilized macadam is subject to the combined influence of the “water loss surface effect” and “water loss porthole effect.” With increasing fiber diameter, the water loss surface effect becomes stronger, and the water loss porthole effect gradually decreases; thus, the overall effect transitions from the latter to the former. Moreover, the water loss rate shows an increasing trend of decreasing to its minimum. Therefore, with increasing fiber diameter, the average dry shrinkage coefficient of the polyester-reinforced cement-stabilized macadam first increases and then decreases, while the temperature shrinkage coefficients increase. The change in the fiber diameter does not significantly affect the compressive resilient modulus of the polyester-reinforced cement-stabilized macadam if the fiber content remains constant. These findings demonstrate the functional mechanism of the fiber diameter on the road performance of cement-stabilized macadam, thus improving our understanding of the road performance of the polyester-reinforced cement-stabilized macadam and laying a solid theoretical foundation for its many applications.

Everyday human life cannot be separated from plastic. Almost all objects that are around us are made of plastic. In general, plastics are non-biodegradable, causing environmental problems caused by the increased volume of plastic waste. One way to overcome this is by recycling existing plastic waste. But the use of recycled plastics is very limited and considered inefficient because the process is more difficult and processing is more expensive than buying new plastic raw materials. Another alternative is to use bioplastics or biodegradable plastic. This plastic is more environmentally friendly because it is biodegradable or easily decomposed by microorganisms. Basically, bioplastics can be made from vegetable starches. In this study we will use starch extracted from banana peel waste as a base material for making bioplastics. In this research, glycerin which is used as a bioplastic adhesive or plasticizer will be used. Whether or not bioplastics depend on the resistance to water, the attractiveness of the bioplastics, the ability of the plastic to be decomposed by microorganisms. From this research, it is expected to produce bioplastics with high water resistance and high tensile strength and easy to decompose microorganisms.

The early disease of semi-rigid asphalt pavement disease will seriously affect the quality and durability of road usage and the life of the road. Water into the pavement layer cause water content increases and the strength greatly reduced in primary or sub-base material which contends more soil and greater soil plasticity index. Resulting in premature failure of asphalt pavement, and the road surface rutting greater is the insufficient primary strength. The use of water overdose primary stability can fully play its high strength and low cost advantages, but also has a low shrinkage, minimize shrinkage cracks.

Abstract In order to solve the environmental pollution of coal gangue and the shortage of aggregate resources in road engineering, waste coal gangue is used as road base material instead of natural stone materials. Through physical, mechanical, chemical and activity tests of coal gangue aggregate, the optimal gradation composition of unconfined compressive strength was determined. Through unconfined compressive strength, indirect tensile strength, flexural tensile strength, freeze-thaw and dry shrinkage tests, the influence of cement content on road performance of cement stabilized coal gangue mixture was studied. By means of SEM, ICP AES, XRD and optical digital microscope, the difference between spontaneous combustion coal gangue and Unspontaneous combustion coal gangue was analyzed, the microstructure of cement stabilized coal gangue mixture was characterized, and the strength formation mechanism of mixture was explored. The results show that Spontaneous combustion coal gangue has higher activity than Unspontaneous combustion coal gangue.Based on the selected optimal allocation(BNS:SNS:SSC =71.26:9.41:18.8),The mixture of 4% cement dosage can not only meet the requirement of early strength 4.16 MPa, but also show an efficient strength growth rate of 36.10%, showing the optimum mechanical properties. The total shrinkage coefficient of cement stabilized coal gangue mixture with 4% cement dosage is 1.12×10-2, which shows that the dry shrinkage resistance is the best. With the increase of time, hydration degree is gradually deepened, and gelled substance is more tightly bonded to aggregates. There is no obvious gap between aggregates, and the integrity of the mixture is enhanced, which can show better road performance. Ca (OH)2, a cement hydration product in cement stabilized coal gangue mixture, takes place pozzolana reaction with active SiO2 and Al2O3 in coal gangue to produce gismondine, which is beneficial to the global strength and the bond quality of the mixture.
