Soft clays are susceptible to uneven settlement due to its higher tendency of swelling and
shrinkage which could damage the structures. To prevent such damages various soil …

Because soft clays have a greater tendency to swell and shrink, structures constructed on
them face the danger of suffering uneven settlement, which may result in structural damage …

This study examines the effect of nanosilica (NS) additive to improve the mechanical
properties of clay, clayey sand, and sand. The engineering properties of the soils were …

Stabilization and solidification (S/S) using cement and lime is a common remediation
method for oil-polluted soils. Secondary stabilizers and industrial wastes have recently …

Bentonite falls under the category of weak and soft clays and has the tendency of large
settlement with low shear strength. Such soils are found on several areas of the Earth's crust …

In recent decades, numerous unconventional additives for soil strength development have
been introduced to substitute conventional additives like cement and lime, which can …

The soil contaminated by oil product has geotechnical and environmental issues that rise
from leakages in oil storage tanks, accidental spills, and supply and transition pipelines. For …

An enhancement of the inherent strength and durability characteristics is required for the
effective utilization of fly ash (FA) in geotechnical engineering applications. This study …

The study investigated the enhancement of mechanical strength and small-strain stiffness
characteristics of soil blended with Nano-SiO2 and fly ash. Through consistency limits …

Effective remediation of oil-contaminated soil is an essential environmental issue, and
various techniques have been proposed/developed for this purpose. One of the practical …
