| Mix Design of Renolith Course |
: - Cement 5 % by Weight of Dry Soil |
|
- Renolith 5 % by Weight of Cement |
|
- Water 10% by Weight of Dry Soil |
| Equipment |
: Grader |
|
Roller Compactor |
| Construction Period |
: 5 Days, 22-26 March 1999 |
| Project Cost |
: Renolith Road 733 Bath/m3 |
| Process |
: - Clearing the construction site, and taking out organic |
|
soil such as leaves, grass, root |
|
- Mixing imported laterite with cement, then spraying |
|
Renolith and water on the prepared materials |
|
- Compacted to the dry density not less than 95 % |
|
maximum dry density |
