INTRODUCTION
1.1 Background
This study is about the treatment process of a road which had experienced in
structural defect. The selected road is FT 64 lies in between the Benta Town to the
Jetty Terminal in Kuala Tahan River. The selected area is 1 KM length and divided
to (5) five section. Each section consists of 200 meters for the cement, foamed
bitumen, bitumen emulsion, lime and control.
Sample that had obtained at site will be tested such as sieved analysis test,
optimum moisture content, optimum bitumen content, unconfined compressive test
and the indirect tensile test. The Recycled Asphalt Pavement (RAP), the new
aggregate and stabilizing agent were mixed in the design mix stage.

Road base is an unbound layer. It is designed to be a layer that will carry and
absorb loading from the vehicle and transmit it into the lower layer. So road base
layer are often defect due to a higher and frequent loading imposed to it.
CIPR is a treatment process that recycled the original road base and adds with a new
mixture and stabilization agent in order to withstand the imposed loading from the
vehicle. The type of stabilization agent plays a significant role to boost the
performance of the mixture. Thus in this study is conducted to obtained knowledge
of the performance of each stabilizing agents used.
The aim of this study is to determine the performance of CIPR by using different
type of stabilization agents. To achieve the above aim, the following objectives were
set out at the beginning of the study as follows:
This study also is conducted to have more data on the CIPR method by using
various types of stabilization agents. This is to give the industrialists the options to
propose and use the stabilization agents that had been tested. It is hope that
4
industrialists will be educated for understanding and using this CIPR method with
any of the stabilization agents.
There are five chapters covered in this thesis. Description for each chapter is shown
as follow:
Chapter One of this report introduces the background of the project, problem
statement and described the specific objectives addressed in the study as well as
design components limitation.
Chapter Two presents a review of literature and relevant research associated with the
problem addressed in this study such as the types of road defect, types of road
treatment, the CIPR Method and the types of stabilization agents and explanation on
method adopted in methodology.
Chapter Three presents the methodology of the project and procedures used for data
collection that had obtained from the tests conducted.
Chapter Four contains an analysis of the data by graphing method. The results then
will be discussed.
Chapter Five offers a summary of the findings and recommendations for future
research.
