The Suitability Of Tarsand As A Stabilizing Agent For Lateritic Soils

Ife 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

Journal 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.

Compaction and strength characteristics of lead contaminated lateritic soil treated with eco-friendly biopolymer for use as road foundation material

Hybrid Advances
Reuse of unwanted soil material due to contamination is one of the available alternative to mitigate the depletion of natural construction material like lateritic soil. Lateritic soil can become contaminated as a result of mining activities.

Investigating the dynamic characteristics of crack formation of Jiangxi lateritic soil subjected to drying-wetting cycles

Journal of Safety and Sustainability
Earthen dams made of Jiangxi lateritic soil are widely built in Jiangxi Province, China. Field observations showed uneven settlements and cracks in the earthen dams, which were attributed to the dynamic water-level fluctuation in the reservoir.
