Notes - general: Abstract:This three-year research project was
concerned with assessing the potential for
contamination resulting from the use of alternative
aggregates in road construction and bulk fill. The
approach was to define and verify a logical
materialassessment procedure focusing on a tiered
series of material characterisation and leaching
tests. The material assessment procedure was used to
investigate how the in-situ conditions of usage
influence the leaching process and the nature of any
impact. In this report, a material assessment
strategy is defined along with recommendations for
binder treatments based on material properties anusage
scenario.
