Effects of Xanthan Gum Biopolymers on Gypseous Soils Characteristics
Tikrit Journal of Engineering Sciences, 2020 Gypseous soils are problematic soils that cause large deformations in the constructions that are built on it. Therefore, many binders have been used to reduce this impact.

Geotechnical Behaviour of Gypseous Soil Treated by Geopolymer Additives [PDF]
Diyala Journal of Engineering Sciences, 2023 Gypseous soil is well-known for its numerous engineering problems. When this soil is exposed to water, the gypsum in the soil dissolves, causing the buildings built on it to collapse; so, treating gypseous soil is important for improving its engineering

Experimental Study on the Behavior of Square-Skirted Foundation Rested on Gypseous soil Under Inclined Load [PDF]
Journal of Engineering, 2023 This work investigates experimentally the effect of using a skirt with a square foundation of 100 mm width resting on dry gypseous soil (i.e., loose soil with 33% relative density), and subjected to an inclined load. Previous works did not study the use

EFFECT OF COMPACTION ON THE BEHAVIOUR OF KIRKUK GYPSEOUS SOIL [PDF]
Journal of Engineering, 2006 The purpose of the present work is to investigate the effect of compaction on the behaviour of gypseous soil. A testing program carried out to study the geotechnical properties and the behaviour of gypseous soil (gypsum content = 37% & 56%) taken from

Bearing Capacity of Bored Pile Model Constructed in Gypseous Soil
Journal of Engineering, 2015 Gypseous soils are distributed in many regions in the world including Iraq, which cover more than (31%) of the surface area of the country. Existence of these soils, always with high gypsum content, caused difficult problems to the buildings and ...
