Depending on soil conditions, the engineer may specify a variety of chemicals including Portland Cement, Quicklime and Lime Kiln Dust, among others.  On Soil Stabilization projects, Mt. Carmel will follow the specifications provided by the engineer or governing agency so that the design criteria matches up with the finished product in the field.  

Many transportation departments, municipalities, commercial developers and airport agencies are taking advantage of the long term performance and cost effectiveness of Soil Stabilization. True Soil Stabilization typically results in a reduction in thickness of other, more expensive structural layers such as aggregate, asphalt or concrete.
