Critical State of Sand Matrix Soils [PDF]
The Scientific World Journal, 2014 The Critical State Soil Mechanic (CSSM) is a globally recognised framework while the critical states for sand and clay are both well established. Nevertheless, the development of the critical state of sand matrix soils is lacking.

Review of the effect of sand on the behavior of expansive clayey soils
Acta Technica Jaurinensis, 2021 Clayey soils often showed undesirable engineering behavior such as low bearing capacity, swelling and shrinkage characteristics. However, chemical improvement, thermal improvement and improvement by additives like lime, cement and sand offer an efficient

A Review of Sand–Clay Mixture and Soil–Structure Interface Direct Shear Test
Geotechnics, 2021 Natural soils are usually heterogeneous and characterized with complex microstructures. Sand–clay mixtures are often used as simplified soils to investigate the mechanical properties of soils with various compositions (from clayey to sandy soils) in the ...

Estimating liquid limits of mixed soils
Energy Reports, 2023 A large number of mixed soils exist in nature, including sand–clay mixtures, silt–clay mixtures and clay–clay mixtures. The physical parameters of soils are the basis for investigating their mechanical properties (compression, permeability, strength ...

Effect of Wetting Conditions on the In Situ Density of Soil Using the Sand-Cone Method
Applied Sciences, 2021 The sand-cone method is commonly used to measure the in situ density of compacted soils. While determining field density with this method, differences in the sand-filling process between the test hole and the calibration container can cause errors.

Oedometric study of dredged marine soils admixed with sand for settlement reduction [PDF]
, 2017 Dredged marine soils (DMS) can be reused as fill materials for land reclamation project other than dump back to the open sea. However, in Malaysia, dredged marine soils were considered as a geowaste because of it has poor engineering properties.

Using Granular Waste Tire as a Factor to Increase Shear Strength of Cohesionless Soils
Journal of Advanced Research in Natural and Applied Sciences, 2021 Soils are called problematic soils when they do not have sufficient bearing strength to provide a founda-tion for the structures to be built on them and these types of soils need to be improved with appropriate methods depending on their properties ...

ANALYSIS OF RAFT FOUNDATION ON SANDY SOILS BY WINKLER AND PSEUDO-COUPLED METHODS
Eskişehir Osmangazi Üniversitesi Mühendislik ve Mimarlık Fakültesi Dergisi, 2023 The settlements occurred in building foundations depend on many soil parameters. Thus, these parameters make the solution both difficult and complex during the calculating process.
