Reliability Evaluation of Compaction Water Content of Plantain Peel Ash Treated Lateritic Soil

open access: yesNigerian Journal of Technological Development, 2021
A first-order reliability method (FORM)was employed to assess the compaction water content, CWC (i.e optimum moisture content) of residual lateritic soil mixed with plantain peel ash (PPA) and compacted with British Standard Light (BSL)and British ...

The Suitability Of Tarsand As A Stabilizing Agent For Lateritic Soils

open access: yesIfe Journal of Science, 2005
The suitability of tarsand as a stabilizing agent for lateritic soils was investigated in this study. This is to find a rather cheaper means of stabilizing lateritic soils that has become very important for the construction industry. The soil samples were subjected to the general classification and strength tests. The strength tests are: the compaction,

Effects of Periwinkle Shell Ash on Lime-Stabilized Lateritic Soil

open access: yesJournal of Applied Sciences and Environmental Management, 2017
This study assesses the effects of periwinkle shell ash (PSA) on lime-stabilized lateritic soil. Preliminary tests were carried out on the natural soil sample for the purposes of identification and classification. The soil sample was classified as A-7-5.
