This laboratory study examines the potential use of an anionic polyacrylamide (PAM)-based
material as an environmentally sustainable additive for the stabilization of an expansive soil …

The stabilisation of expansive clay subgrades using recycled glass (RG) was proposed, as a
sustainable ground improvement technique. Previous studies mainly focused on using RG …

Utilizing natural expansive clays that are available on-site as sewer trench backfill can
cause destructive deformations due to volume changes, which are caused by seasonal …

Expansive soil is prone to cracks under a drying–wetting cycle environment, which brings
many disasters to road engineering. The main purpose of this study is use coal gangue …

The swelling and collapse behaviors of expansive soils cause significant damage to light
infrastructures such as pavements. This study investigates the swell-collapse behavior of …

Limited supplies of natural aggregates for backfilling pipeline trenches in trafficable areas
have led to considering secondary resources. Utilizing blends entirely made of recycled …

Sewer infrastructures that are backfilled with available onsite expansive soils may be
exposed to damages due to seasonal ground movements. Therefore, for deep excavated …

The current study proposes an approach for the determination of optimum additive content to
stabilize the expansive soil for the construction of highway embankments by conducting an …

ABSTRACT A study was conducted on the effects of temperature and salt concentration of
pore fluid on the properties of an expansive soil during drying and wetting cycles. The …

The cyclic swell-shrink behavior of expansive soils poses formidable challenges to both rigid
and flexible structures within pavement engineering, necessitating effective mitigation …
