Effect of sisal fibers on the disintegration characteristics of sisal fiber-amended loess
Construction and Building MaterialsLoess, an aeolian and unsaturated deposit, is highly sensitive to water. It can swiftly cause a series of detrimental effects including soil erosion, water and soil losses, and slope instability under the action of water and loading. Consequently, enhancing the water stability of loess is paramount for mitigating these issues. This study systematically
