Utilization Of Fossil-Fuel Related By-Product Materials For Highway Construction In Kentucky, David Q. Hunsucker
Utilization Of Fossil-Fuel Related By-Product Materials For Highway Construction In Kentucky, David Q. Hunsucker
Kentucky Transportation Center Research Report
In an effort to increase the utilization of fossil-fuel by product materials in highway construction project, the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet authorized the experimental use of several waste materials. These materials included bottom ashes, fly ash, scrubber sludge, multicone kiln dust, and residues tram atmospheric fluidized bed combustion processes. Bottom ash aggregate was used as a partial replacement for the limestone aggregate in a bituminous surface mix. Non-specification fly ash was used in lieu of Class F fly ash in a stabilized aggregate base. Bottom ash stabilized with residue from an atmospheric fluidized bed combustion process was used as a highway …
Construction And Performance Of Highway Soil Subgrades Modified With Atmospheric Fluidized Bed Combustion Residue And Multicone Kiln Dust, David Q. Hunsucker, Tommy C. Hopkins, Tony L. Beckham, R. Clark Graves
Construction And Performance Of Highway Soil Subgrades Modified With Atmospheric Fluidized Bed Combustion Residue And Multicone Kiln Dust, David Q. Hunsucker, Tommy C. Hopkins, Tony L. Beckham, R. Clark Graves
Kentucky Transportation Center Research Report
In an effort to increase the utilization of by-product materials in highway construction projects, the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet authorized the experimental use of reside from an atmospheric fluidized bed combustion (AFBC) process and multicone kiln dust (MKD), a by-product resulting from the production of lime, as subgrade soil modifiers. This report presents information relative to preconstruction and post-construction laboratory evaluations, construction procedures, construction monitoring activities, and performance evaluations of a highway subgrade solid modified using AFBC spent lime, MKD, Type IP cement, and hydrated lime. An untreated section served as a control section for the project located on Kentucky Route …
