Measurement of cement content and layer thickness variation of cement stabilized base and subgrade using ground penetrating radar

The research objective is to investigate a relationship among dielectric constant, electrical conductivity, and cement content of cement-stabilized base/soil layers to develop a methodology to assess the layer thickness variation of cement stabilized base/soils layers and to perform field validation based on the outcomes that will be developed during this study and distress data from the existing LTPP, GA-LTPP, and/or specific sites that have cement stabilized base/soil layers.
