Abstract: In the interest of utilizing high-plasticity excavation soil as a replacement for fine aggregate in cement mortar, a study on the thermal treatment of soils containing 25% and 40% clay fractions was carried out. A range ...

Abstract: Microfabric plays an important role in the engineering behavior of soils. Although many studies are available in the literature on the effect of microfabric on the static behavior of soils, the effect on the cyclic behavior ...

Abstract: Land reclamation is a major civil engineering activity in Singapore. Due to depletion of suitable local fills and the cost of imported sand, dredged and excavated clay fills, in spite of their poor engineering properties, ...

Abstract: Cement-stabilized pond ash is often used as an alternative to conventional materials in compacted subgrade and subbases in pavements. The addition of cement to pond ash increases cohesion and improves strength. The effects ...
