Polymeric products such as plastics and rubbers are in widespread use, and the recycling of
these polymeric materials has not kept pace with the increased production. There are …

The accumulation of waste tires is a global resource and environmental problem. The landfill
or incineration of tires will infiltrate toxic chemicals into the surrounding environment, which …

Mixing soil or sand with tire rubber fibers or buffings is a practical and promising solution to
the problem of global scrap tire pollution. However, sand–rubber mixtures exhibit …

The present study investigates the combined capacity of a newly developed slag-blended
cement (MC) and fly ash (FA) as a sustainable solution towards improving the mechanical …

Micaceous soils are common in many tropical countries and regions, and in some locations
with moderate climate. The soils are spongy and unstable when loaded and are not …

This experimental laboratory study examines the potential use of tire-derived aggregate
(TDA) products as an additive to alleviate the inferior geotechnical properties of a subgrade …

In the current study, the marl clay was improved by different contents of sodium
lignosulfonate (NLS) and cured at different times and then, all samples were subjected to …

The increased generation of demolition waste has led to the successful implementation of its
utilization in civil engineering projects. The combination of recycled aggregates and …

Railway tracks are conventionally built on compacted ballast and structural fill layers placed
above the natural (subgrade) foundation. However, during train operations, track …

The current research evaluated the effect of expansive clay stabilization using a combination
of cement (0, 2, 5, 8%) with electric arc furnace slag (EAF) and ladle furnace slag (LF) …
