Abstract
This paper presents the effect of the curing environment on the unconfined compressive strength of soil-cement samples and in finding the optimum output mix ratio and estimating the effect of silica fume in the admixture. This work is based on the data from the Cai Mep-Thi Vai inter-port road project and results from laboratory experiments. The results show that the specimens with the highest strength were cured in soil, lowered in city water with NaCl 2.5% and then NaCl 5%. The optimum silica fume admixture ratio equals to 1% (in comparison with the weight of cement content).
