Evaluation of Subgrade Soils using California Bearing Ratio (Cbr) in Parts of Rivers [PDF]
Journal of Applied Sciences and Environmental Management, 2014 Subgrade soils are characterized by their resistance to deformation under load, which can be a measure of strength (stress needed to break a material) or stiffness (the relationship of stress and strain in the elastic range or how well a material is ...

Prediction Models for Estimation of California Bearing Ratio for Cohesive Soil [PDF]
International Journal of Trend in Scientific Research and Development, 2018 Cohesive soils are well known for their low strength properties. Thus, they are inappropriate for geotechnical works. Soils may be stabilized to increase strength and durability. Stabilization with cement is a common treatment technology. The present study examines the strength of cement stabilized soil.
