Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A project requires stabilizing clay soil that has a low CBR value. You recommend a cement content of 4%. If the initial tests show a strength gain of only 50 psi, what adjustments might you suggest?

💡 Hint: What is the minimum psi gain to aim for?

Question 2

Describe how the Standard Proctor test could affect future stabilization projects if the original soil density is significantly lower than expected.

💡 Hint: Consider how initial tests inform ongoing methods.
