Tikrit Journal of Engineering Sciences, 2020 Soils with highly gypsum content signify known as soils that exhibit collapsibility and sudden failure when being submerged to wetting. Many of the constructions built on this soil showed cracked and/or collapsed at some parts as these soils immersed or ...

EFFECT OF COMPACTION ON THE BEHAVIOUR OF KIRKUK GYPSEOUS SOIL
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

Influence of Leaching on Gypseous Soil
, 2014 Gypseous soil disturbed in many regions of the world. Existence of these soils with high gypsum content caused many problems to the buildings and structures that built on it due to dissolution and leaching of the gypsum slates by the action of water flow through the soil mass. Therefore, it is necessary to study the properties of such soils and improve

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 ...

Behavior of Piled Raft Foundation Model Embedded within a Gypseous Soil Before and after Soaking [PDF]
Engineering and Technology Journal, 2017 The paper explain an experimental study to show piled raft system behavior when embedded within gypseous soil in three different stats (dry, socking for 1 day and placing a bearing layer of dense sand below the gypseous soil when socking for 1 day).

Recent and ancient evolutionary events shaped plant elemental composition of edaphic endemics: a phylogeny-wide analysis of Iberian gypsum plants. [PDF]
New Phytol, 2022 Summary The analysis of plant elemental composition and the underlying factors affecting its variation are a current hot topic in ecology. Ecological adaptation to atypical soils may shift plant elemental composition. However, no previous studies have evaluated its relevance against other factors such as phylogeny, climate or individual soil conditions.

Behavior of Gypseous Soil Treated by Arabic Gum Biopolymer Under Cycles of Wetting and Drying
Tikrit Journal of Engineering SciencesGypseous soil is classified as problematic soil since the main source that makes it problematic soil is the dissolving of gypsum in water. Treatment by biopolymers offers an environmentally friendly and sustainable way of soil enhancement that has ...
