This Guide supersedes the 1993 version of “A Guide to the Use of Slag in Roads.” Since 1993 there have been significant improvements in road technology in Australasia, particularly in the area of pavement materials development and road stabilisation. Slag has played a significant part in these improvements. Moreover, there is now considerably more data available on the performance of slag based road materials to the extent that slag materials and blends are now

considered to be a premium roadbase material and stabilising binder by many experienced users.

This Guide is directed to designers, specifiers and users of road materials and presents up to date information so that where appropriate, the use of road materials incorporating slag products may be considered on an informed basis. References are provided to enable the reader to obtain more detailed information about specific products and how they relate to current specifications and work practices. Copies are available to members at a cost of $10.00 each, non-members $15.00, plus postage and handling.
