Soil-cement brick with granite cutting residue reuse

Journal of Cleaner Production, 2021
Abstract This research proposes the study of granite cutting residue (GCR) reuse in the incorporation of soil-cement brick. The proposed formulations were the replacement of cement by granite cutting residue in 5%, 10%, and 20%, and the replacement of soil by residue in 20%, 30%, and 40%.

Shear Strength Anisotropy of Natural Granite Residual Soil

Journal of Geotechnical and Geoenvironmental Engineering, 2022
AbstractA significant feature of residual soil is the presence of a cemented structure and fissures that dominate its anisotropic behavior.

Experimental Study on Anisotropy of Granite Residual Soil

Advanced Materials Research, 2012
Inherent anisotropy and induced anisotropy are two main influencing factors on the engineering properties of granite residual soil. When preparing specimens of granite residual soil for undrained triaxial tests, large-sized specimens can be used to weaken the influence of sampling disturbance and inherent anisotropy, and K0 consolidation is adopted to ...

Collapse behavior of unsaturated remolded granitic residual soil

Bulletin of Engineering Geology and the Environment, 2020
In the tropical area, most shallow foundations and embankments are involved in dealing with unsaturated soils. Any collapse or settlement in unsaturated soils is determined by two independent stress variables: the applied stress and suction. The massive collapse related to suction changes may lead to unrecoverable damages to compacted earth fills both ...

Residual effectiveness of phosphorus on white clover on granitic soils

Australian Journal of Agricultural Research, 1976
Three field experiments were carried out on highly phosphorus-deficient granitic soils in the northern tablelands of New South Wales to determine the residual effectiveness of phosphorus, and the efficiency of its usage by white clover pastures, in relation to the rate and frequency of application of fertilizer. There was a linear and

Shear strength behaviour of unsaturated granite residual soil

2020
The shear strength behaviour of an unsaturated granite residual soil were investigated using consolidated drained (CD) and constant water content b (CW) triaxial tests with special emphasis on the effect of the matric suction.

Experimental Study on Disintegration Behavior of Granite Residual Soil

Advances in Transportation Geotechnics and Materials for Sustainable Infrastructure, 2014
This paper focused on the disintegration behavior of remolded granite residual soil. A new apparatus was designed to do the disintegration tests. By conducting a series of disintegration tests with different dry densities and different water contents, the disintegration features and basic patterns were observed and measured.

Influence of water repellency on granite residual soil

World Journal of Engineering
Purpose This study explores the use of octadecylamine (ODA) as a surface modifier to treat granite residual soil, aiming to enhance its water repellency and address the threat to engineering safety posed by the soil’s water sensitivity. Design/methodology/

Shear Strength of Unsaturated Malaysian Granitic Residual Soil

Journal of Testing and Evaluation, 2018
ABSTRACT This study aims to understand the shear strength of unsaturated Malaysian granitic residual soil. The soil was obtained from Kuala Klawang, Negeri Sembilan, Malaysia. A pressure plate was used for obtaining soil-water characteristic curves under zero net confining pressure.

Soil Water Characteristic Curve for a Granite Residual Soil: Experimental and Numerical Results

Defect and Diffusion Forum, 2011
The seepage analysis in geotechnical problems, namely in excavations, was typically performed assuming saturated conditions in the ground. It is now know that the flow in the non saturated part of the ground assumes also relevant importance and hence it is vital to characterize its behaviour.
