ROADBOND EN 1:
Replace Lime In Clay Sub-Grade Soil

ROADBOND EN 1 is used in lieu of lime to stabilize clay subgrade soils. The advantages over lime include reduced water use, energy consumption, and Co2 emissions.  It is also placed, mixed, compacted, and finished in one operation without the need to remix.  Many projects are placed and paved in less than 5 days!

Lab tests and field trials have been conducted on high P.I. clay soils in order to evaluate the effectiveness of ROADBOND EN 1.  The general findings are that ROADBOND EN 1 improves the strength of clay soils and the strength improves over time.   Also, the dry weight of the treated soil increases slightly and the treated soil is 2-times less permeable than untreated soil and 4-time less permeable than lime treated soil.
