Terminology3.1 Definitions:3.1.1 For common definitions of terms in this standard, refer to Terminology D653.3.2 Definitions of Terms Specific to This Standard:3.2.1 non self-cementing fly ash, nfly ash produ

18、ced from the combustion of pulverized or crushed coal. This fly ash haspozzolanic properties and no self-cementing properties.3.2.2 self-cementing fly ash, nfly ash produced from the combustion of pulverized or crushed coal. This fly ash, in additionto having pozzolanic properties, sets and hardens

19、by chemical interaction with water and is capable of doing so under water.3.2.3 stabilizing admixtures, nadmixtures used to improve soil properties such as increased soil freeze-thaw durability,stiffness, and strength; reduction of permeability, plasticity, and swelling; increased control of soil co

20、mpressibility and moisture.4. Significance and Use4.1 This practice is intended for use with fly ash that can be used separately or along with other stabilizing admixtures toimprove soil properties.4.2 The characterization of the physical and chemical properties of the fly ash shall assist in the ev

21、aluation of the fly ash forsoil stabilization.4.3 This practice is not intended to limit the flexibility of design in soil stabilization. The degree of success attained in soilstabilization is highly dependent on the particular combination of soil, fly ash, and other additives and the construction p

22、rocedureused. Demonstrated sound engineering procedures that result in appropriate physical characteristics are acceptable. The selectionof appropriate materials, applicable tests, acceptance criteria, and specification is the responsibility of the design engineer.NOTE 1The quality of the result pro

23、duced by this standard is dependent on the competence of the personnel performing it, and the suitability of theequipment and facilities used. Agencies that meet the criteria of Practice D3740 are generally considered capable of competent and objectivetesting/sampling/inspection/etc. Users of this s

24、tandard are cautioned that compliance with Practice D3740 does not in itself assure reliable results. Reliableresults depend on many factors; Practice D3740 provides a means of evaluating some of those factors.5. Fly Ash Quality Assurance Program5.1 Pre-QualificationA fly ash is pre-qualified if it

25、is sampled in accordance with Method C311 and a quality history is madeavailable consisting of six months of recent test results. The type of tests performed and their frequency shall be acceptable to thepurchaser.NOTE 2The intent of the quality history is not to accept or reject the fly ash with re

26、gard to specified limits but to provide an evaluation of the flyash and its uniformity.5.2 ProjectDuring the project, spot-checking of a pre-qualified fly ash shall occur at the sampling and testing frequencyestablished by the purchaser. A fly ash that is not pre-qualified shall be sampled at the so

27、urce at a minimum frequency of onesample for each (91 mg) 100 tons made available for sale and be sampled at the job site at a minimum frequency of one samplefor every (23 mg) 25 tons. The type of tests performed and their frequency shall be acceptable to the purchaser.6. Determination of Fly Ash Ch

37、g Fly Ash Stabilization:X1.1.1 Non self-cementing fly ash, by itself, has little effect on soil stabilization. It is a poor source of calcium and magnesiumions. The particle size of fly ash may exceed that of the voids in fine-grained soils, precluding its use as a filler. However, this flyash in po

38、orly graded sandy soils may be a suitable filler and, as such, may aid in compaction, may increase density, and maydecrease permeability.X1.1.2 Non Self-Cementing Fly Ash Mixed With Cement or LimeThe advantage of adding fly ash to fine-grained soils, alongwith cement or lime, is for its pozzolanic p

39、roperties and improved soil texture. Some clays are pozzolanic in nature and onlyrequire lime to initiate the pozzolanic reaction. The use of this fly ash is suitable with clays requiring lime modification, providedlime is added to promote the pozzolanic reaction. If lime is required, it should be a

40、dded to the soil up to 24 h prior to fly ashaddition.addition depending upon the plasticity soil (e.g. soils classified as SC or CL by the Unified Soil Classification System).Pre-blended lime and fly ash as approved by the engineer may be spread in a single application on SC or CL classified soils.X

41、1.2 Self-Cementing Fly Ash Stabilization:X1.2.1 This fly ash is a better source of calcium and magnesium ions although not as good as lime or Portland cement.Self-cementing fly ash contains varying amounts of free (uncombined) lime (0 to 7 % CaO by weight) that can provide cationexchange and ion cro

42、wding to fine-grained soils when used in significant amounts. It has been used successfully to control swellpotential of expansive soils. It has also been used to stabilize coarse-grained soils.NOTE X1.1Though some fly ashes have up to 35 % CaO (elemental chemical analysis), most of the calcium is c

43、ombined as calcium aluminates, calciumsilicates, and calcium sulfate.X1.2.2 The retardation of some very self-cementing fly ashes, using retardation agents, such as: sodium borate, sodium citrate,citric acid, or commercial retarding admixtures, may be necessary to delay the hydration reactions suffi

44、ciently to obtain adequatemixing and compaction in the field. Since the effect of retarders is variable, checks of strength and time of set should be performedon trial batches for each fly ash.D5239 123SUMMARY OF CHANGESIn accordance with Committee D18 policy, this section identifies has identified
