Compressibility of expansive soil mixed with sand and its correlation to index properties
HeliyonPrior research has primarily focused on Atterberg limits, void ratios, and/or water content, often disregarding the impact of coarse material percentage in the soil, which significantly affects compressibility behavior. This paper examines the effects of

Improving water stability and mechanical behavior of surface clayey soil by bio-constructed barrier
Journal of Rock Mechanics and Geotechnical EngineeringSoil erosion induced by water is one of the most common natural disasters. Microbially-induced calcite precipitation (MICP) technique was investigated as a possible method for improving soil hydro-mechanical characteristics against erosion. Although many

Effect of Sand Addition on Laterite Soil Stabilization
MaterialsLateritic soils, particularly abundant in tropical regions, have been successfully used in the construction of unbound layers of flexible pavements in Brazil since the 1970s. Despite their potential, these soils are often discarded or only recommended after stabilization processes, based on traditional parameters such as gradation requirements and ...

A study of soil nailing in sand
, 1993 This dissertation is concerned with a study of soil nailing, in particular the interaction mechanism between the soil and a nail and the failure mechanism and suitable design procedure for nailed slopes in sand. The interaction mechanism of a nail was studied by carrying out a number of pull-out tests, direct shear tests of nailed sand and interface ...
