3. PURPOSE, REQUIREMENT OF DESIGN CEMENT
TREATED AGGREGATE
3.1. Purpose
- In order to make the mixing ratio of materials to form cement
treated aggregate to ensure most reasonable, economic requirements, specifications
of the project.
3.2. Requirement
- Choosing reasonable materials, ensuring the best quality,
stability supplying and ability to control the quality.

PROJECT: HA NOI – LANG SON EXPRESSWAY (SECTION KM1+800÷KM45+100) 4
- Giving a optimal use rate, meets the technical requirements of
projects and cost savings.
- Ensuring good workability, easily applied in field conditions.
4. DESIGN CEMENT TREATED AGGREGATE
4.1. Selecting materials sourse
- To ensure that the management of construction quality, ensure
stability during the construction. Selection of materials sourse is very important,
a direct impact on the quality and progress during entire project.
4.1.1. Selecting cement sourse
- Recommend using local cement PCB40 Dong Banh, because:
 The intensity and high early strength: meet the current trend of early
strength, such as speeding, early dismantling formwork, prestressed
structures must stretch - cable is cut soon, ...
 Reduce the cost of construction: Cement is produced locally, factory near the
highway passes through. Therefore, reducing transportation costs, meet the
construction schedule of the project as well as to limit the accumulation and
preservation of cement at the construction site.
- Cement sample results: See details in the Annex.
4.1.2. Selecting aggregate sourse
- Stone served for the project was obtained from 2 quarries Sao
Mai and Giang Son. Through tests assessing the quality of the stone 2 quarries
shows:
