Development of insulating backfill materials produced from the ternary mixtures of red mud, fly ash and preformed foam
Many public utility lines to transport power, water, natural gas, water, sewer, and communication are placed beneath trafficable areas. However, insufficient or inadequate backfill induces sudden subsidence, damage, or pothole on the road. This study aims to develop lightweight controlled low-strength materials (CLSM) with low thermal conductivity using the ternary mixtures of red mud to replace aggregate sand, high carbon fly ash, and preformed foam. Changes in flow consistency, air void characteristics, bulk unit weight, unconfined compressive strength (UCS), and thermal conductivity (k) of the tested materials with varying red mud contents were investigated as a function of the foam volume ratio (FVR). The results demonstrate that the UCS and k of tested materials decreased with increasing FVR due the decrease in unit weight, and a greater UCS but smaller k was observed at a given FVR with increasing red mud content because the inclusion of red mud in the lightweight CLSM mix design helps improve the stability of air bubbles and achieve uniform distribution of air voids. In addition, the red mud can act as a NaOH supplier, leading to the developed material had additional strength gain from the alkali activation. Thus, the developed insulating backfill material showed 43 % decrease in k while maintaining UCS similar to non-foam CLSM without red mud.
期刊介绍:
Transportation Geotechnics is a journal dedicated to publishing high-quality, theoretical, and applied papers that cover all facets of geotechnics for transportation infrastructure such as roads, highways, railways, underground railways, airfields, and waterways. The journal places a special emphasis on case studies that present original work relevant to the sustainable construction of transportation infrastructure. The scope of topics it addresses includes the geotechnical properties of geomaterials for sustainable and rational design and construction, the behavior of compacted and stabilized geomaterials, the use of geosynthetics and reinforcement in constructed layers and interlayers, ground improvement and slope stability for transportation infrastructures, compaction technology and management, maintenance technology, the impact of climate, embankments for highways and high-speed trains, transition zones, dredging, underwater geotechnics for infrastructure purposes, and the modeling of multi-layered structures and supporting ground under dynamic and repeated loads.
