Expansive soils are problematic due to the performances of their clay mineral constituent,
which makes them exhibit the shrink-swell characteristics. The shrink-swell behaviours …

Calcium‐based stabilizer materials (CSMs) exhibit pozzolanic properties which improve the
properties of clayey soils by hydration, cation exchange, flocculation, pozzolanic reaction …

Not only has the COVID-19 pandemic caused a global health crisis, but it has also changed
the dynamics of waste generation around the world. This situation demands a productive …

Geopolymer based soil stabilization is an emerging research field as shown by recent
research studies which indicate strong potential of their wide use for sustainable ground …

Sustainable engineering discourages the use of conventional soil stabilizers such as lime
and cement owing to their higher carbon emission rates. To address these challenges, many …

Expansive soils swell when they absorb water and shrink by losing water. This process
causes significant volume changes in highly expansive clay soils. Clay soil foundations …

This study explores the coupling effect of pond ash (PA) and polypropylene (PP) fiber to
control the strength and durability of expansive soil. The PA is used to chemically treat the …

This research employed coir fiber and activated carbon as eco-friendly additives and waste
materials while using lime as a traditional binder to improve the properties of two residual …

The utilization of industrial by-products as stabilizers is gaining attention from the
sustainability perspective. Along these lines, granite sand (GS) and calcium lignosulfonate …

Expansive soil subgrade exhibits low volumetric stability due to moisture imbalance,
rendering pavement serviceability loss. In the present study, an effort is made to improve the …
