Microscale and Macroscale Characterization of Biopolymer-Stabilized Sulfate-Rich Expansive Soils
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Problematic soils like expansive soils cause significant damages to civil infrastructure. The use of calcium-based stabilizers in the treatment of sulfate-rich expansive soils is not suggested due to the formation of ...
Liquefaction Assessment in Unsaturated Soils
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Liquefaction in soils has predominantly been associated with saturated soils. Under seismic activity, unsaturated soils are may also be susceptible to liquefaction. The implications of neglecting unsaturated soils that are ...
Experimental Studies and Modeling of High-Sulfate Soil Stabilization
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: An experimental study was conducted to assess the effectiveness of lime stabilization with precompaction mellowing in stabilizing six different high-sulfate soils. Three mellowing times, 0, 3, and 7 days were studied. ...
Variation of Resilient Modulus of Subgrade Soils over a Wide Range of Suction States
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Design of flexible pavements over fine-grained soils requires determination of subgrade resilient modulus over a wide range of degree of saturation and suction for different soils. A novel experimental setup was developed ...
