Addressing the challenges of homogeneity, quality control and waste handling in soil bio-cementation: A large-scale experiment

open access: yesSoils and Foundations, 2023
In an attempt to go beyond the conventional laboratory experiments widely reported in literature around the emerging technique of soil bio-cementation, this work addresses key challenges related to its large-scale application.

Temperature- and saturation-dependent behaviour of unsaturated clay beams in bending tests [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences, 2023
The paper investigates the deformation behaviour of partially saturated clay beams under flexural stress. Beams were prepared from two clays and then loaded until failure. Three degrees of saturation and two loading rates were examined for each clay. The

Perspectives of 3D Probabilistic Subsoil Modeling for BIM

open access: yesGeotechnics, 2023
Building information modeling (BIM) in the planning and construction of infrastructure projects, such as roads, tunnels, and excavations, requires the generation of comprehensive 3D subsoil models that encompass relevant geological and geotechnical ...

Experimental investigation of coupled thermo-mechanical behaviour of Kaolin clay [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences
An experimental study regarding the thermo-mechanical behaviour of a Malaysian Kaolin is presented in this paper. Mercury intrusion porosimetry (MIP) tests have been performed on compacted samples with varying initial water contents. Samples compacted at

SWCC of Calcareous Silty Sand Under Different Fines Contents and dry Densities

open access: yesFrontiers in Environmental Science, 2021
Investigating the soil-water characteristics of calcareous soil has a great significance for preventing geological disasters on island-reefs as well as maintaining the foundation stability of hydraulic-filled island-reefs. In this study, calcareous silty

Polymer-modified bentonite-silt composites to improve the hydro-mechanical properties of landfill mineral sealings [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences
Compacted clay layers are widely used in landfill barrier systems, relying on low-permeability soils to prevent leachate migration. When local soils like silts lack sufficient sealing properties, bentonite is added to enhance impermeability due to its ...
