Abstract

The objective of this research is to develop one or more testing method to give indices of ductility for Portland cement, lime, or fly-ash stabilized soils. These indices will provide a relative characterization of the ductility of different materials, and that can be used to compare the ductility of different materials. This index will provide a tool that can be used in subsequent research to quantify effects of ductility on long-term performance, and to compare ductility of different materials or mix designs.
