This report provides mix design flow charts for stabilised materials using lime, cementitious and bituminous binders. The mix design is based on laboratory characterisation using state-of-the-art approaches used by State Road Authorities, local government engineers and consultants. These flowcharts may be used for subgrade, subbase and base pavement material layers.
