This paper describes a new approach to minimize the amount of shrinkage cracking in cement treated base(CTB). CTB is a stiffness base having lots of merits such as higher rutting resistance, minimizing fatigue cracking, and the ability to distribute upper loads. However, It is not applied to asphalt pavement system in Korea because of possible cracks caused by dry shrinkage. The goal of this study is the development of cement treated base with lower shrinkage for preventing reflection cracks and rutting. After identifying factors affecting dry shrinkage and analyzing mechanism of each admixture, the laboratory and field tests were designed and performed. Through the preliminary tests, the mix design containing 25 percent o( fly ash and 7 percent of cement was suggested. This mix design was satisfied with strength for Korea specification standard. According to the results considering strength, shrinkage, and economical efficiency, two mix designs were selected; 1) containing 25 percent of fly ash and 2) containing 25 percent of fly ash with 10 percent of expensive additive. For field test based on the result of laboratory test, the optimized alternative in cement treated base with lower shrinkage was the mix design containing 25 percent of fly ash with 10 percent of expansive additive.

Cement treated Soil has superior characteristics as pavement-base including strength, curability, hardness, freezing resistance. However drying shrinkage of Cement treated base has been indicated as disadvantage, since reflection crack of surface layer is induced from drying shrinkage of cement treated base. This study propriety about low-shrinkage cement treated base that can control shrinkage of cement and control reflection crack at asphalt overlay & concrete slab.

A few study has been performed on the durability of subbase treated with geo-cement for the farm road although many papers for the road treated with soil-cement were published. The objectives of the study are to develop the stabilizing method of subbase using additives of cement groups and 2nd additives such as gypsum and MgO, etc. A series of test was performed to investigate possible mixing ratios with geo-cement A, B, C, D and 2nd additives on the various soft soils from the rice paddy. Based on test results, durability index was greatly affected by geo-cement D which was mainly composed with gypsum. Compressive strength of clayey soil such as Soil I was less than threshold strength(30kgf/$\textrm{cm}^2$) but the strength was increased as addition of gypsum and MgO. It is recommended that geo-cement for soil stabilization has to be carefully chosen because strength characteristics of subbase are varied not only with soils but also with addition of geo-cement and 2nd additives. The developed method in this study can be used subbase treatment of low-cost agricultural roads.

The characteristics of resilient modulus(Mr) which dominates the life of pavement and the design of pavement were investigated on the test specimens which were cement treated and non-treated of the three different soil types. The results are summarized as follows : 1. The resilient modulus was decreased by increasing the cyclic deviator stress ($\sigma$d) , especially the resilient modulus was gradually decreased or sometimes increased when the value of ad was greater than 0.75- 1. 0kg/cm$^2$. 2. The resilient modulus was increased by increasing the homogeneous confined stress ($\sigma$do) and such phenomena were distinct on the coarse soils. 3. The resilient modulus was increased by increasing the ratio of confined stress(Kc), and this phenomena were eminent on the coarse soils too, and the higher permanent strain was showed by increasing the value of Kc. 4. In the drained cyclic triaxial compression test, the value of ad, Kc, and (Oho) was introduced by the following interrelated equations which were similar to the Mr model of Cole. Kcn/Mr=K1(J$_2$/ $\tau$oct)K2 ............. (coarse soli) Mcn/Mr=K3($\sigma$dp/ $\tau$f)k4 ...............(fine soils) 5. The stress path was not much affected by the value of Mr, however, moisture content, dry desity, and contant of fines affected the value of Mr. 6. In the soil-cement specimens, the resilient compression strain($\varepsilon$d) was decreased by the increment of the $\sigma$ho, and Mr was decreased by increasing the $\sigma$d 7. In the flexible pavement. the cement treated layer should be designed not to fail by the fatigue before the designed traffic load, and actually the pavement could cover the traffic load to a certain extent under the post-crack phase, therefore farther studies on this phenomena' are required in the design analysis. 8. The finite element computer program (ANALYS) was used for displacement analysis of pavement containing the cement-treated layer, The result showed that the program used for this analysis was proved to be usable.

PURPOSES : As a research to develop a cement treated base course for an airport pavement which can enhance its drainage, this paper investigated the strength, infiltration performance and durability of the pervious concrete with respect to maximum coarse aggregate sizes and compaction methods. METHODS : This study measured compressive strength, infiltration rate, continuous porosity and freeze-thaw resistance of pervious concrete specimens, which were fabricated with five different compaction methods and different maximum aggregate sizes. In addition, in order to reduce the usage of Portland cement content and to enhance environment-friendliness, a portion of the cement was replaced with Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag (GGBS). RESULTS: Compressive strength requirement, 5 MPa at 7 days, was met for all applied compaction methods and aggregate sizes, except for the case of self-compaction. Infiltration rate became increased as the size of aggregate increased. The measured continuous porosities varied with the different compaction methods but the variation was not significant. When GGBS was incorporated, the strength requirement was successfully satisfied and the resistance to freezing-thawing was also superior to the required limit. CONCLUSIONS: The infiltration rate increased as the maximum size of aggregate increased but considering construct ability and supply of course aggregate, its size is recommended to be 25mm. With the suggested mix proportions, the developed pervious concrete is expected to successfully meet requirements for strength, drainage and durability for cement treated base or subbase course of an airport pavement.
