Advances in Civil Engineering, Volume 2021, Issue 1, 2021., 2021 There are a large number of high‐filled and deep‐dug highways in loess areas. The differential settlement between the filled and undisturbed soils is the main cause of damage. Bamboo grids are good reinforcement and flexural tensile materials for highway subgrades, and the properties of the interface between the bamboo grid and loess soil affect the ...

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.

Advances in Civil Engineering, Volume 2021, Issue 1, 2021., 2021 The focus of this study was to investigate the effect of loess soil treated with lime on the lateral‐seepage response. Three groups of box experiments were carried out to study the lateral‐seepage effect under different types of loess‐lime structures. Automated testing systems were designed to perform experiments and collect data.

Prediction of Gypseous Soil Settlement Using Artificial Neural Network (ANN)
Diyala Journal of Engineering Sciences, 2022 Gypseous soil exhibits problematic geotechnical engineering properties as they expand, collapse, disperse, undergo excessive settlement, owns a distinct lack of strength, and it is soluble.

LEACHING BEHAVIOR OF GYPSEOUS SOILS
Journal of Engineering, 2008 A series of laboratory tests were carried out on disturbed soil samples containing different gypsum contents. The soil samples were obtained from al-Jazeera south-west of Iraq. Tests were performed to obtain the physical and mechanical properties of the soil.

Soil investigation using a participative approach for agri-environmental improvement in Monegros, Spain [PDF]
, 2008 5 Pags.- 1 Tabl.- 2 Figs.The saline wetlands of the Monegros Desert, in the center of the Ebro Basin (NE Spain), host valuable biodiversity and pedodiversity. A part of this area has been proposed for inclusion in the Natura 2000 E. U. Network. However,

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 ...
