Strength and compressibility characteristics of problematic soils such as loose sands and
extra-sensitive clays need to be enhanced for the construction purposes which is due in part …

There is a burgeoning interest in the development, characterisation and implementation of
alternatives to cement and other cementitious binders in civil engineering frameworks (ie …

The application of recycled materials for soil improvement is advantageous from the
viewpoint of lowering construction costs, preventing depletion of natural resources, and …

This work studies the effect of binder and fibre quantity on the mechanical behaviour of
“Baixo Mondego” soft soil, chemically stabilised with binders and reinforced/non-reinforced …

The efficiency of typical chemical and mechanical soil stabilization techniques in mitigating
the swelling problem of an expansive soil is investigated through a comprehensive …

Soil reinforcement with fibers is a simple, efficient and low-cost (especially by incorporating
waste or recycled fibers) technique for enhancing mechanical characteristics of soft soils …

This work studies the effect of using two types of polymer (fibers and liquid) to enhance the
strength of cemented soft clay. Four polymer contents were used (0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.5 and 1% by …

The present work proposes a theoretical model for predicting the splitting tensile strength
(qt)-unconfined compressive strength (qu) ratio of artificially cemented fibre reinforced soils …

Eco-friendly magnesium oxychloride cement (MOC) is incorporated to reduce the disposal
obstacles and mitigate the environmental impacts related to the urban river sludge. Three …

In order to verify the feasibility of using chopped carbon fibers to reinforce soil-cement, the
orthogonal test and verification test of flexural strength had been carried out and the …
