Expansive soils exist in many countries worldwide, and their characteristics make them
exceedingly difficult to engineer. Due to its significant swelling and shrinkage characteristics …

This study investigates the performance of granular anchor piles and helical piles in
expansive soils. Expansive soils pose challenges for engineering due to their significant …

The effect of supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) such as fly ash (FA), GGBS and
silica fume (SF) on the geotechnical index and engineering properties of expansive clays …

In this research, bentonite soil was stabilized with cement and epoxy resin additives by
gradually increasing the ratio of epoxy resin to water to withstand six successive …

The swelling pressure (SP) of expansive soils is crucial for both geotechnical studies as well
as practitioners. Multiple attempts have been made to correlate the SP with the properties of …

Expansive unsaturated soils present challenges in construction due to their moisture-
induced behavior. This study proposes empirical equations to estimate the maximum wetting …

Soil is a naturally heterogeneous material and can show significant spatial variation in
strength and other properties. For silty and clayey soils, these variations are often more …

Climate change is one of the major global challenges and it can have a significant influence
on the behaviour and resilience of geotechnical structures. The changes in moisture content …

Expansive soils change volume due to changes in moisture content, which results in ground
movement. Lightweight shallow-depth structures such as pavements, residential footings …

This research was done to find out how adding hydrated lime and extra water content to
clayey soil samples affecting their unconfined compressive strength (UCS). The clayey soil …
