Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:10152921

This design manual describes the use of fly ash as a construction material for use as structural and nonstructural fills, backfills, embankments, base courses, roller compacted concrete dams and pavements, soil stabilization, land reclamation and other high volume uses. The manual details the physical, engineering, and chemical properties of bituminous, subbituminous and lignite fly ash. Included are field and laboratory testing methods, design data, procedures and examples, specifications, quality control, and pre- and post-construction monitoring. Volume 1 describes uses where fly ash is used dry or conditioned with small amounts of moisture. Volume 2 describes uses where fly ash is placed as a slurry with relatively large amounts of water.
