Physical and Chemical Properties and Behavior of CCPsx2014;Fly ash, bottom ash, boiler slag, FGD material and FBC ash, or combinations thereof, can be used for mine reclamation. Each of these materials ty
pically exhibits general
physical and chemical
pro
perties that must be considered in the design of a mine reclamation
project using CCPs. The s
pecific
pro
perties of these materials vary from source to source so environmental and engineering
performance testing is recommended for the material(s) or combinations to be used in mine reclamation
projects.

<p class="subsec3">4.2.1.1x00a0;Unit Weightx2014;Unit weight is the weight per unit volume of material. Fly ash has a low dry unit weight, typically about 50 to 100 pcf (8 to 16 kN/mp>3p>). Bottom ash is also typically lighter than coarse grained soils of similar gradation. Stabilized FGD material from a wet scrubber and FGD material from a dry scrubber are also relatively lightweight, with unit weights similar to fly ash.p>
<p class="subsec3">4.2.1.2x00a0;Strengthx2014;Shear strength is the maximum resistance of a material to shearing stresses. The relatively high shear strength of fly ash is beneficial for CCP flowable fill formulations requiring strengths sufficient to prevent mine subsidence. The shear strength of non-self-hardening fly ash is primarily the result of internal friction. Cementitious CCPs experience a cementing action that is measured as cohesion and increases over time, which results in high compressive strength. Unconfined compressive strengths in excess of 1000 psi can be achieved for cementitious CCPs.p>
<p class="subsec3">4.2.1.3x00a0;Specific Gravityx2014;Specific gravity is the ratio of the weight in air of a given volume of solids at a stated temperature to the weight in air of an equal volume of distilled water at a stated temperature. The particle specific gravity of fly ash is relatively low compared to that of natural materials, and generally ranges from 2.1 to 2.6.p>
<p class="subsec3">4.2.1.4x00a0;Grain-Size Distributionx2014;Grain-size distribution describes the proportion of various particle sizes present in a material. Fly ash is a uniformly-graded product with spherical, very fine grained particles.p>
