Abstract:

Flowable fly ash is a relatively new cementitious structural backfill material. It can be used in water or in the dry and will flow into place without the usual labor-intensive activities of spreading, rolling, and compacting. Its properties are described and illustrated through the use of short case histories and results of testing.
