  • Emulsion
  • Lime
  • Portland cement
  • Fly ash
  • Liquid chloride

A combination of mixing 6% Portland cement at a 12-inch depth before installing 2 inches of hot mix asphalt. The subsequent recycled material must be covered with hot mix asphalt or chip seal.

A geotechnical examination should be performed to determine the proper stabilization techniques to be utilized considering traffic load forecasts, climate, and life cycle.

Base Stabilization is very appealing to property owners because of the lower life-cycle costs, overall performance, low environmental impact, and ease of construction.
