GALVEZ-COOPER, Amanda Gabriela. Stabilization of clayey soils using asphalt emulsion and steel filings for subgrades. Dyna rev.fac.nac.minas [online]. 2023, vol.90, n.226, pp.66-72.  Epub 12-Feb-2024. ISSN 0012-7353.  https://doi.org/10.15446/dyna.v90n226.105839.

This research evaluates the changes brought about by the addition of asphalt emulsion and steel filings in clayey soils for subgrade in urban pavements. For this study, different dosages of each additive were established, being 1%, 2%, 4%, 8%, and 15% for the steel filings and 3%, 6%, 9%, 13%, and 18% for the asphalt emulsion, obtaining favorable results in the subgrade in accordance with the CE.010 Urban Pavement standard. With the steel filings the CBR (California Bearing Ratio) had a linear increase whose maximum value was reached with the dosage of 15% increasing the CBR considerably by 189.47% above the CBR of the natural soil; on the other hand, with the asphalt emulsion a maximum increase in CBR was obtained with the dosage of 13% obtaining an increase of 236.84% and after that a decrease is observed with the addition of 18% of asphalt emulsion.
