Stabilised Soils
Soil stabilisation is a process whereby unsuitable materials can be treated by the addition of stabiliser to produce a valuable construction resource. The use in this way of site-won materials has both economic and environmental benefits:

Guidlines of Best Practice
Britpave has produced this publication to provide guidelines for all those involved in soil stabilisation. The information is based on current knowledge of Britpave members experienced in the design and execution of soil treatment.

Stabilisation of Sulfate-Bearing Soils
These guidelines for the stabilisation of sulphate bearing clays aim to: Explain the mechanisms that cause sulphate heave; Recommend methods for sampling and testing for sulfates and sulfides;
Describe measures to minimise the risk of sulfate-related disruption.
