Abstract

In order to study the frost heaving characteristics of soil stabilitized with a quick lime, a cement and a briquette ash, frost heaving tests were performed with 2 kinds of soil sampled at Chonbuk-Do area. Frost heaving of no-stabilizing soil compacted with water content greater than optimum water content was increased as the frost period was increased but in case of samples with water content smaller than optimum water content, the frost period gave no affect about increase and decrease of the frost heaving. Both frost heaving of stabilizing and no-stabilizing soil with water content greater than optimum water content was decreased with the increase of the repetition number of freezing and thawing. There was no increase or decrease of frost heaving in the frost heaving test after 5 times of freezing and thawing.
