Bio-methods for soil stabilisation
Proceedings of the Institution of Civil Engineers - Ground Improvement, 2012The Philippines is a country of approximately 7000 islands and experiences monsoons and typhoons to an average of 20–30 typhoons per year which bring heavy rainfall. Due to the combinations of heavy rainfall and loss of indigenous vegetation, increasingly the Philippines is experiencing larger and more numerous landslides.

Microstructural features of lime-stabilised pyroclastic soils
Géotechnique Letters, 2013Some results of an experimental investigation on a lime-stabilised Italian pyroclastic soil are presented and discussed. This material is very reactive with calcium oxide (CaO) provided by the lime, the effectiveness of the stabilisation mainly depending on the amount of low alkali alumino-silicate glass phase.

The activation energy of stabilised/solidified contaminated soils
Journal of Hazardous Materials, 2007Developing an understanding of the time-related performance of cement-treated materials is essential in understanding their durability and long-term effectiveness. A number of models have been developed to predict this time-related performance. One such model is the maturity concept which involves use of the 'global' activation energy which derives ...

Stabilisation of collapsible soils
2015Collapsible soils are prone to considerable volume change as a result of wetting. The presence of collapsible soils under the footing of industrial or residential buildings can bring about irrecoverable and considerable damage to the supporting structures due to settlement of the underlaying soil upon wetting.

Lime stabilisation of clay soils
International Journal of Rock Mechanics and Mining Sciences & Geomechanics Abstracts, 1989Clay soil can be stabilised by the addition of a small percentage, by weight, of lime, that is, it enhances many of the engineering properties of the soil. This produces an improved construction material and so the technique has been used for many construction purposes, notably in highway, railroad and airport construction to improve subgrades and sub ...

Stabilised soil and the built environment
Renewable Energy, 1994Abstract Low cost durable housing is one of the basic needs of the low income groups in all parts of the world today. Affordable housing and the climate should be compatible with one another so that the inhabitants of a house in a hot climate should have cool living conditions whilst the inhabitants of houses in cold areas have a warm environment in ...

Consolidation Characteristics of Lime Stabilised Soil
Malaysian Journal of Civil Engineering, 2018Soft clay is always associated with settlement and consolidation. Stabilisation ofsoft clay with lime as bearing stratum is an alternative to replacement of thatmaterial. The compression and consolidation characteristics of the stabilisedmaterial need to be fully understood for design purposes.

Bio-stabilisation of dispersive soils
2015Dispersive soils are among problematic soils encountered in many parts of the world. In these soils, the soil particles disperse into solution upon saturation and thereby increase the piping potential of these soils. Therefore, stabilisation of these soils is of great concern for geotechnical engineers.
