| description | Pavement degradation throughout its design life requires rehabilitation to maintain its functionality. Conventional repair methods, such as ‘remove and replace,’ are costly and environmentally unfriendly. Cold in-place recycling (CIPR) has emerged as an eco-friendly alternative for addressing severe pavement damage. CIPR involves recycling the existing pavement and part of the base layer, which are then compacted to form a new base layer with the addition of a stabilizing agent. In Malaysia, cement is a commonly used stabilizing agent. However, the extensive use of cement raises environmental concerns, as its production contributes between 5-9% of global CO2 emissions. This study explores partially replacing ordinary Portland cement (OPC) with ground coal bottom ash (GCBA) and using calcium chloride (CaCl₂) as an accelerator to address this issue. The study varied OPC content from 1-4%, with GCBA and CaCl₂ ranging from 0-3%. An unconfined compressive strength (UCS) test was conducted to analyze the effects on compressive strength and strength development over time. Results indicated that the optimal GCBA percentage for cement replacement is 1%, while the optimal CaCl₂ content is between 1% and 2%. Overall, compressive strength increased with curing time, highlighting the potential of this innovative approach to pavement rehabilitation. |
