[0002] Water-stabilized base course, also known as cement-stabilized base course, refers to the foundation of highways or airport runways. It can be divided into water-stabilized crushed stone base course and water-stabilized gravel base course. In construction, it is generally a two-layer course. Water-stabilized crushed stone or (gravel) base course: refers to the foundation material used for highways or runways, which is made by mixing cement with crushed stone or (gravel) according to a certain gradation using a mixer.

[0003] Traditional cement-stabilized crushed stone base courses have the following technical defects:

[0004] Thermal shrinkage cracking: Cement-stabilized materials are prone to transverse cracks when subjected to temperature stress, and the cracks reflect upwards, causing damage to the surface layer;

[0005] Interlayer slip: Conventional structures have smooth interlayer interfaces, which are prone to shear failure under vehicle loads;

[0006] Water damage: Water seeps through cracks, causing materials to soften and accelerating structural failure.

[0007] Therefore, we propose a crack-resistant water-stabilized base course structure. Utility Model Content

[0012] The buffer layer is an asphalt-aggregate mixture layer, and its bottom surface forms a serrated interlocking structure with the surface of the crack-resistant layer.

[0013] Preferably, the mass ratio of polypropylene fiber to steel fiber is 1:0.3-0.5, and the lengths are 12-18 mm and 25-35 mm, respectively.
