• Site Investigation – The site should be investigated to determine the cause of failure.
Cores or test holes should be used to determine layer thicknesses and to obtain
samples of the material to be recycled (which can include asphalt surface, base course
aggregate, and subgrade).
GeoStab FDR Process
• Pavement Surface –The new pavement surface consisting of a chip seal, hot-
mix asphalt, or concrete is constructed to complete the recycling process.
GeoStab FDR Process
• Quality Control –Recycling with the GeoStab process follows the same basic
procedures used for normal soil-cement operations. The success of a
recycling project depends upon the careful attention to the following control
factors:
• Adequate pulverization
• Proper cement content
• Proper moisture content
• Adequate density
• Adequate curing
GeoStab FDR Process
• One of the drawbacks of using asphalt emulsions is the relatively long period of waiting
required for curing, before which the hot mix asphalt (HMA) binder and surface courses could
be laid down.
Foamed Asphalt FDR
Note: The UCS would normally be 1.0 – 1.5 MPa for a cementitious modified material
(usually requires 2% to 3% cementitious binder by mass) or 2.0 – 2.5 MPa for a fully bound
material (usually requires 4% - 5% cementitious binder by mass) for deep lift stabilization.
The above result of 4.4 MPa was achieved with only 2.5% cementitious binder and is twice
that expected for fully bound deep lift stabilization requiring 4% - 5% cementitious binder.
GeoStab FDR
• Protect FDR stabilization against harmful effects of chemical compounds in the road to
undergo FDR, e.g. sulphate
• Prevent penetration and capillary rise of water within the FDR stabilization
• Protect FDR stabilization against harmful effects of chemical compounds in the road to
