Cement Stabilization of Goodyear Airport Air Craft Storage Area
A good example of the use of cement stabilization on a large scale project is an aircraft storage area at the Goodyear Airport. The project called for the creation of taxiways and 26 parking pads for commercial aircraft weighing 300,000 pounds each. Asphalt Busters spread over 2,000 tons of cement with our two spreader trucks. We then pulled water from our 10,000-gallon water truck and injected the water and mixed the cement and water with the subgrade. The contractor graded and compacted the subgrade and applied slurry seal as the wearing course.
These types of projects can benefit from cement stabilization:
- Channel stabilization—cement treated subgrade is placed on the sides of channels for erosion control.
- Highway base stabilization—cement was added to strengthen the base to bridge over poor subgrades on numerous ADOT projects.
- Parking lot stabilization—mixing cement into poor subgrades stabilizes the base allowing for better final paving.
