RISEarth Pressures on Retaining Walls Backfilled with Sand Admixed with Building Derived Materials: Laboratory Scale Study
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Earth retaining structures are constructed to withstand lateral pressure from backfill soil and surcharge pressures from the foundations of adjacent structures. Although sands are considered as the most suitable backfill ...
Effect of Fiber Reinforcement on Mechanical Behavior of Alkali-Activated Binder-Treated Expansive Soil: Reliability-Based Approach
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Expansive black cotton soil (BCS) exhibits volumetric instability when exposed to moisture fluctuation, rendering loss of geomechanical strength. The present paper evaluates the effectiveness of stabilizing BCS with two ...
Reliability Coupled Sensitivity-Based Seismic Analysis of Gravity Retaining Wall Using Pseudostatic Approach
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The stability of geotechnical earth structures is often affected by associated uncertainties present in geotechnical parameters, if they are not properly accounted for. The present paper aims at quantifying these uncertainties ...

Subgrade Strength Performance Behavior of Alkali-Activated Binder and Cement Stabilized Expansive Soil: A Semifield Study
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Expansive subgrade soil possesses a dual nature of swelling and shrinkage, resulting in a premature failure on pavement surfaces. In the present investigation, an effort has been made to compare the field performance of ...
