Expansive soils are problematic for direct engineering applications in their natural state
because of the shrink-swell phenomenon. Numerous stabilizers and methods have been …

Research on agricultural wastes management, as a natural resource material, is state of the
art and desirable subject in many engineering subcategories. The benefits include ease of …

This paper reports the strength and durability properties of expansive soil treated with slag-
based geopolymer, hydrated lime, and Portland cement. The slag content in the soil-slag …

This study explored the effect of indigenous bacteria present in the soil to stabilized swelling
behavior and improving the mechanical property of expansive soil. The objective of the …

This study explored the coupling effect of the recycled ash and natural fibers to control the
expansive soil's strength and durability attributes. The bottom ash (BA) was used to …

One of the widely used methods for improving the engineering performance of problematic
soils is in-situ or ex-situ mixing using various additives (conventionally cement and lime). In …

This study explores the use of two wastes (rice husk ash (RHA) and cement kiln dust (CKD))
for improving the mechanical strength of a subgrade soil obtained from a failed road section …

Laterite soil is commonly used as a fill or pavement material. However, it tends to lose its
natural bonding and experiences large deformation when subjected to cyclic rainy (wet) and …

Laboratory investigation on the effect of micro sized quarry dust on engineering behaviour of
cement stabilized lateritic soil was carried out. The specific concentration was on the …

This study investigated the effect of oyster shell ash (OSA) on the geotechnical properties of
lateritic soil. Laboratory studies were performed using lateritic soil treated with up to 15 …
