Volume Change Behavior of Gypseous Soil

open access: yesJournal of Materials in Civil Engineering, 2017
The susceptible characteristics of gypseous soil with variations in water content pose several engineering problems due to volume change behavior. A series of oedometer tests have been performed to understand the swell strains and compressibility of soil containing varying gypsum content after curing for different periods.

Mechanical Behavior of Gypseous Soil Treated with Lime

Geotechnical and Geological Engineering, 2020
Gypseous soil is a problematic soil that is very sensitive to moisture variations and loses its strength upon saturation. Lime stabilization is traditionally used to enhance gypseous soils for civil engineering constructions. Studies on gypseous soils stabilized with lime have shown that the effectiveness of the treatment is largely dependent on the ...

Studying collapse potential of gypseous soil treated by grouting

open access: yesSoils and Foundations, 2014
Gypseous soil is a collapsible soil, which causes large deformations in the buildings which are constructed on it. Therefore, several methods have been used to minimize this effect, such as replacing the gypseous soil or stabilizing it (grouting or soil ...

Potential of fly ash to suppress the susceptible behavior of lime-treated gypseous soil

open access: yesSoils and Foundations, 2018
The use of lime and fly ash to improve the properties of certain types of soil is well established. However, the potential of fly ash to control the adverse effects of lime-treated gypseous/sulphatic soil has not been well investigated.

Effects of curing environment and period on performance of lime-GGBS-treated gypseous soil

open access: yesTransportation Geotechnics, 2022
Gypseous soils are regarded as a harmful soil, threating the safety of transportation infrastructure, including railway and road. Lime-activated ground granulated blastfurnace slag (GGBS) is effective for the treatment of gypseous soils; GGBS is a by ...

Soil–Water Characteristic Curve of Gypseous Soil

Geotechnical and Geological Engineering, 2014
The soil–water characteristic curve (SWCC), also known as soil–water retention curve, is a key tool in assessing the behavior and properties of unsaturated soil. The SWCC of gypseous soil with 0, 5, 15 and 25 % gypsum content was determined, using tensiometric plate, osmotic membrane and vapour equilibrium techniques, with suction pressures ranging ...
