Failures of tailings dams, primarily due to liquefaction, have occurred in Brazil in recent
years. These events have prompted the Brazilian government to place restrictions on the …

Waste glass is a solid residue widely available in the urban centers, where it is discarded
after being used in the most diverse applications (container for distinct products, tableware …

The procedure of soil treatment with industrial and domestic wastes such as ground glass
and coal ash (acting as pozzolans) and carbide lime is a sustainable practice when the …

This study investigates the performance of sustainable use of recycled-glass powder (GP) in
soil improvement. The porosity/cement ratio (η/C iv) and curing time are employed to study …

The high volume of mining tailings generated imposes difficulties regarding the final
disposal of these materials, commonly requiring large structures for containment …

One of the conventional ways to improve the mechanical behavior of soils is to mix them with
cementing agents such as cement, lime and fly ash. Recently, introduction to alternative …

The cemented soils by trench cutting re-mixing deep (TRD) wall or trench cutting assembled
diaphragm (TAD) wall are a mixture of various soils. The physical and mechanical properties …

The improvement of soils that are not suitable for a particular purpose through techniques
that combine densification and the incorporation of portland cement have been extensively …

The world's population is growing at a rapid pace, thus increasing the need for shelter,
which, because of increased carbon emissions, is making our planet less habitable. Thus …

The adjusted porosity/cement index η/(C iv) a showed to be an interesting empirical rational
dosage methodology for soil-cement purposes as it inputs into a single parameter the role of …
