enduring performance of soils treated with chemical additives. This study was focused on
investigating the mechanical behavior of a lime and cement-treated cohesive soil under the
effects of repeated cycles of wetting and drying. The soil samples were prepared by adding
different concentrations of cement (2, 6, 10, 12, 16, 20%) and quicklime (2, 4, 6, 8, 10%).
Due to low-plastic nature of the host soil, the effectiveness of cement to reduce the plasticity …
