RISBehavior of Plate Load Tests on Soil Layers Improved with Cement and Fiber
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The load-settlement response from three plate load tests (300 mm diameter, 25.4 mm thick) carried out directly on a homogeneous residual soil stratum, as well as on a layered system formed by two different top layers (300 ...
Discussion of “Variable Bulk Modulus Constitutive Model for Sand” by Bashar S. Qubain, Victor N. Kaliakin, and Joseph P. Martin

Estimating the Willingness to Pay for Improvement of an Urban Park in Southern Brazil Using the Contingent Valuation Method
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Urban green spaces play a key role in the improvement of environmental quality, livability, and sustainability of towns and cities. The aim of this paper is to elicit the willingness of the population of Passo Fundo, a ...
Competitive Sorption of Metallic Species under Different pH in a Residual Clayey Soil
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Soil contamination by toxic metals is a major environmental issue, mainly due to inadequate methods of waste disposal and accidental spills. Studies on fate and transport of contaminants help prevent the spread of pollutants ...
Behavior of Compacted Soil-Fly Ash-Carbide Lime Mixtures
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Unconfined compression tests, Brazilian tensile tests, and saturated drained triaxial compression tests with local strain measurement were carried out to evaluate the stress-strain behavior of a sandy soil improved through ...
Closure to “Behavior of Compacted Soil-Fly Ash-Carbide Lime Mixtures” by Nilo Cesar Consoli, Pedro Domingos Marques Prietto, João Anto⁁nio Harb Carraro, and Karla Salvagni Heineck
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Engineering Behavior of a Sand Reinforced with Plastic Waste
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Unconfined compression tests, splitting tensile tests, and saturated drained triaxial compression tests with local strain measurement were carried out to evaluate the benefit of utilizing randomly distributed polyethylene ...
Variables Controlling Stiffness and Strength of Lime-Stabilized Soils
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Lime treatment is an attractive technique for soil improvement in the construction of rail tracks and pavement layers, in slope protection of earth dams, and as a support layer for shallow foundations. However, there are ...
