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 …

Initially used as foundations for transmission towers, helical piles are now used for solar
power plants, wind turbines, boardwalks, retaining walls, retrofitting works, and even …

This study compares the performance of various foundation systems in expansive soils, such
as mats, granular anchor piles, and concrete piles. Expansive soils experience volumetric …

The use of piles, helical anchors, in general, helical foundations has considerably increased
in the last 30 years. The adoption of this technology in the international and domestic codes …

Expansive soils are mainly soils or rock materials that can shrink and swell in response to
moisture content changes. Deformation of such soils is greater than elastic deformation and …

Expansive soil is considered one of the most important causes of the collapse of buildings
and facilities. There are many factors affecting the stability of structures constructed on …

Expansive soils are highly problematical as they have likeliness to experience volumetric
changes with respect to variations in moisture content. It is regarded to cause damage to …

This paper presents laboratory and numerical analysis on the behavior of expansive soils
treated by Silica fume and Slag as a pozzolanic material. The laboratory tests divided into …
