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.

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.

Geotechnical characteristics of some Iraqi gypseous soils [PDF]
MATEC Web of Conferences, 2018 In Iraq, especially in the last three decades, extensive developments have been evidenced in the regions of gypseous soils due to the need of construction of many numbers of strategic projects. Failure of different structures constructed on gypseous soil in various regions in Iraq have been noticed.

Compressibility characteristics of collapsible gypseous soil: A review
IOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science, 2023 AbstractGypseous soil is located in dry and semi-arid areas in unsaturated conditions and this type of soil becomes a serious issue for engineering and geotechnical when it becomes wet. the properties and structure of this soil change, when exposed to soaking and leaching, because gypsum is dissolved in water causing a rupture in the bonds that hold ...

Enhancing gypseous soil behavior using casein from milk wastes
Journal of the Mechanical Behavior of Materials, 2022 Gypseous soil is a metastable soil that causes problems in the constructions built on it under wetting conditions. Due to the harmful effects of traditional soil binders such as lime or cement on the environment, alternative environmental-friendly ...

Treatment of Collapsibility of Gypseous Soils by Dynamic Compaction [PDF]
Geotechnical and Geological Engineering, 2012 Gypseous soils are distributed in vast areas and various regions of Iraq and other countries. Many foundation failure problems that occur in these soils are associated with percolation of water and dissolution of gypsum. Many attempts were made by several researchers to treat and improve the properties of gypseous soils to decrease the dissolution of ...

Behavior of circular skirted footing on gypseous soil subjected to water infiltration
Journal of the Mechanical Behavior of Materials, 2023 Skirted footings are used to increase the final carrying capacity of shallow foundations resting on unstable soil and to decrease settling by limiting the soil beneath them. Skirted footings are utilized as an alternative to pile driving in poor strength
