Field Study on the Vacuum Preloading of Dredged Slurry with Wheat Straw Drainage
In this paper, a new shallow reinforcement technique for dredged fill was proposed. In which wheat straw was used as vertical and horizontal drains in lieu of materials applied in the traditional vacuum preloading method. This was not only helpful to avoid permanent environmental damage caused by prefabricated vertical drains but also helpful to ...

Slurry improvement by vacuum preloading and electro-osmosis
Vacuum preloading–electro-osmosis is one of the most useful ground improvement methods for soft soil but is not widely used in practical engineering because of its high power consumption and poor electro-osmotic efficiency in the later stages.

Dredging activities generate a huge amount of dredged clay slurry, and the treatment of it has been a challenge. Carbide sludge (CS)-activated ground-granulated blastfurnace slag (GGBS) can effectively stabilize clay slurry. However, in previous studies,

Sedimentation behavior of flocculant-treated soil slurry
Soil slurry dredged from seabed is becoming more widely used in land reclamation projects. A major problem encountered is that soil slurry is very high in water content and the dewatering process is difficult and time consuming. In this paper, the use of

Assessment of consolidation behavior of golden horn marine dredged material
Polluted sea bottom sediments from Golden Horn in Istanbul have been dredged and stored on land at a disposal site. Reclamation of the disposal site was highly dependent on prediction of self-weight consolidation behavior of the dredged material, which ...

Small-Strain Dynamic Behaviours of Reconstituted Soft Clay Under Different Initial Water Contents
High-water-content dredged slurry from port dredging requires geotechnical improvement via drainage and consolidation. The small-strain dynamic properties (shear stiffness, damping characteristics) of reconstituted and consolidated clays are critical to ...

Anisotropy in the permeability and consolidation characteristics of dredged mud [PDF]
Dredging and land reclamation is a billion dollar industry that is spread around the coastal regions of Australia. Maintenance dredging is carried out regularly in many major Australian ports and in several cases the dredged mud is pumped ashore into ...

Effects of lime-clay modification on the consolidation behaviour of the dredged mud
A series of laboratory tests was performed to evaluate the effect of clay fabric, altered due to the addition of hydrated lime into slurry, on the primary and secondary consolidation behavior of dredged mud samples.

This experimental study investigated the use of combined industry by-products, carbide sludge (CS) and ground granulated blast-furnace slag (GGBS), to replace ordinary Portland cement (OPC) for the stabilization of clay slurry, aiming to increase the ...
