Abstract: This paper presents, by way of comparison, the effect of fly ash on the volume change of two different types of clay, one a highly plastic expansive clay and the other a nonexpansive clay, also of high plasticity. Expansive ...

Abstract: This paper presents heave behavior of an expansive clay reinforced with geopiles, which are vertical cylindrical cells made of geogrid and filled with geomaterials. When a geopile is installed vertically in an expansive ...

Abstract: This paper presents results of the relationship between the degree of saturation and the matric suction head at static equilibrium and during dynamic flow of water using a Buchner funnel and a fully instrumented two-dimensional ...

Abstract: This note presents a study of the efficacy of fly ash as an additive in improving the engineering characteristics of expansive soils. An experimental program has evaluated the effect of the fly ash content on the free swell ...

Abstract: This paper presents experimental results obtained from tests conducted on remolded expansive soil specimens blended with rice-husk ash (RHA) and stabilized with lime and calcium chloride. The amounts of RHA, lime, and ...

Abstract: The increasing use of the Internet for many purposes is creating big data, many of which are generated from social media. These big data potentially could assist in obtaining valuable administrative information and even ...
