Abstract: The Indian Standard, IS:2911 (Part 4) and the Australian Standard, AS 2159-1995, specify the acceptance criteria for piles tested in compression. These criteria can be applied only if the settlement of the pile is large ...

Abstract: Recent advances in polymeric materials have opened up a new alternative of providing additional stability to embankments on soft soils by incorporating polymeric reinforcement in the form of sheet or grid at the base of ...

Abstract: Fly ash is a waste produced in coal-fired thermal power stations. It has pozzolonic properties and can therefore be stabilized with either cement or lime to achieve the strength required for use as base courses in pavements. ...

Abstract: Detailed testing regarding geotechnical utilization was carried out on fly ash from the Dadri thermal power station. The chemical composition and physical properties of the fly ash were determined. The morphology of the ...

Abstract: An experimental program was undertaken to study the individual and combined effects of randomly oriented fiber inclusions and cement stabilization on the geotechnical characteristics of fly ash-soil mixtures. An Indian fly ...

Abstract: Fly ash, a waste from thermal power stations, has been used in many countries to build highway embankments, fills, landfill liners, and covers. The maximum dry density (MDD) and optimum moisture content (OMC) of fly ash ...
