The purpose of this study is to investigate the individual and admixed effects of sawdust ash
(SDA) and high calcium fly ash (HCFA) on the geotechnical characteristics of expansive soil …

Efficient and environmentally friendly alternative binders for expansive soils improvement
are needed to practice sustainable geotechnics. This study evaluates the viability of a lime …

An expansive clay is considered a geological material and classified as problematic soil
because its high free swell potential (FSP) after water absorption often damages light …

We conducted an experimental study on the swelling–shrinking characteristic of expansive
soil treated with enzyme-induced carbonate precipitation (EICP) using yellow soybean. A …

Expansive soil is blamed for many engineering problems such as foundation damages,
subgrade heave, and road surface bulking. Lime is one of the most widely utilized materials …

In subgrade engineering, silty clay often deforms and fails due to poor strength and water
stability. This study investigates the compaction and shear properties of high-moisture …

Fine-grained soils that expand when in contact with water can be a major issue in some
geotechnical situations, but the soil can be stabilized through chemical means by hydrated …

The swelling properties of expansive soil at different depths were investigated by the
laboratory model test. It was experimentally found that the swelling deformation of different …

This research shows that brackish water increases the unconfined compressive strength of
swelling soil/sugarcane bagasse ash (SCBA)/lime blends. Therefore, brackish water may …

The purpose of this article is to evaluate the shear strength parameters of mixtures of sandy
soil with high asphalt emulsion contents for their use in geotechnical structures, such as …
