Abstract
In this paper, the unconfined compressive strength test of mixture of phosphogypsumfly ash-lime-clay for 7days and 28days curing period is based on 16 kinds of mix design
method for orthogonal analysis, the optimum mix of phosphogypsum-fly ash-lime-clay
is obtained by the unconfined compressive strength test at the same time. Combined
with practice, the application of phosphogypsum to the subgrade and pavement is
studied for its feasibility and practicality, and the result shows that phosphogypsum is
not only a kind of the best roadbed filler but also a type of the road base course with
the excellent performance.

Fly ash-lime-phosphogypsum cementitious binder: A new trend

in bricks
Abstract
Fly ash-lime-phosphogypsum (FaL-G) bricks are one of the best alternatives to the
conventional burnt clay bricks. This paper gives the results of an experimental
investigation in which the compressive strength, water absorption, density and
durability of Fly ash-lime-phosphogypsum (FaL-G) bricks were investigated by using
varying quantities of fly ash, lime and calcined phosphogypsum. The properties of Fly
ash-lime-phosphogypsum (FaL-G) bricks are compared with those of the ordinary burnt
clay bricks. The results indicate that these bricks are lighter in weight, durable in
aggressive environments and have sufficient strength for their use in building
construction.
