Abstract
INDOT has been using chemical soil modifications since the mid-1990s. This presentation will discuss current guidelines for the design and application of these modifications in construction. Specific emphasis will be given to laboratory testing, review of test results, and an overview of how to interpret the contents of the report. The presentation will also include various guidelines from spreading to compaction.
