Construction of structures on weak soft soils is always a great challenge to geotechnical
engineers. Among various ground improvement techniques, stone columns are widely used …

Soil improvement using chemical admixtures has been extensively investigated in the recent
past and these admixtures are abundantly being used on various construction projects …

Most of the industries in the south of Iran and north of the Persian Gulf are built on marl
bedrocks and these industries are major sources of heavy metal pollutants. Therefore, the …

Marl soils with different carbonate contents usually show more unpredictable behavior than
other problematic soils. In some marl soil groups, freezing–thawing (FT) cycles can result in …

This study was to evaluate the engineering properties of cement stabilized expansive clay
soils. This study considered an experimental program to determine Atterberg limits, free …

Marly clay consists of 35 to 65% calcareous materials and it has a very low load bearing
capacity, particularly after experiencing the freeze-thaw cycles. Since the presence of this …

The purpose of this study was to compensate the negative impact of freezing and thawing
cycles on marly soil by means of electrokinetical injection of calcium chloride as a …

The universal popularity of stabilized earth construction (SEC) with its innovative techniques
is growing. Stabilized rammed earth (SRE) and compressed stabilized soil block (CSEB) are …

Peat has a lack of strength, making it unsuitable for foundations or road construction. The
results of 104 unconfined compressive strength (UCS) on peat stabilized with various lime …

Abstract The tumulus of Palaepaphos‐Laona is a monumental earthwork. Its size makes it
unique in the landscape of ancient Cyprus, where even smaller burial mounds are extremely …
