Experimental Study in Gangue Base-Course Mixture Materials for Pavement

Coal gangue, acting as the solid skeleton of pavement base materials, can efficiently reduce the drying shrinkage. Additionally, similar to fly ash in mixture material, gangue can react with lime (so called pozzolanic reaction), resulting in the formation of pavement base with a certain strength, good water stability and frost resistance, are good overall at the grass-roots level. Many cities in our country has gradually tried to use different kinds of industrial waste residue instead of sand to prepare the pavement base materials. This way, not only the waste residue is recycled, the lack of sand aggregates in road construction can also be overcome, which facilitate technical and economic growths.
