Effect of ceramic tiles dust on physical and engineering properties of tropical residual soil [PDF]
E3S Web of Conferences, 2022 Ceramic tile dust is a by-product from manufacturing plant or construction site which leads to the disposal or environmental issues. Previous research has identified the potential of ceramic tile dust in concrete and soil stabilisation.

Stabilisation of Soft Clay, Quick Clay and Peat by Industrial By-Products and Biochars
Applied Sciences, 2023 The stabilisation of soft soils using the traditional binders cement and quicklime are known to emit large amounts of carbon dioxide. To reduce this carbon footprint, substitutes such as industrial by-products have been thoroughly tested as viable ...

Effects of biochar on cement-stabilised peat soil [PDF]
Proceedings of the Institution of Civil Engineers - Ground Improvement, 2023 Peat is a soft soil with a very high organic content, which makes it highly susceptible to extreme differential settlement. Although cement stabilisation is highly effective, it is not common practice due to the high cost of treatment associated with a high binder dosage required.

Plant roots increase both decomposition and stable organic matter formation in boreal forest soil
Nature Communications, 2019 Understanding mechanisms of soil organic matter (SOM) decomposition and stabilisation improves soil-climate feedback predictions. Here the authors show that roots in boreal forest promote organic nitrogen economy and provide a framework on how roots ...

Soil carbon storage and stabilisation in andic soils: A review
CATENA, 2014 Abstract Andic soils contain a large amount of stabilised soil organic matter (SOM). The present study aims to review and integrate the determining factors and mechanisms of SOM stabilisation in andic compared with other (non-andic) soil types. We have reviewed recent literature regarding the nature of SOM and its stabilisation processes in the top ...

Optimization of RHA and Cement proportion for soil stabilization [PDF]
E3S Web of ConferencesThe process of changing a soil’s physical characteristics to provide it long-term, permanent improvements in strength is known as soil stabilisation. Increasing a soil’s overall bearing capacity and shear strength is how stabilisation is achieved.

Soil stabilisation with hydraulic binders
IOP Conference Series: Materials Science and Engineering, 2022 Abstract The lack of a good foundation ground layer in some areas that could be used for construction proposes is a common problem all over the world. Today, more and more researches are focused on finding new solutions to improve the soil parameters in order to obtain a stabilized foundation layer.
