Soil stabilization is a technique to improve the engineering and geotechnical properties of
soils such as mechanical strength, permeability, compressibility, durability and plasticity …

The use of silica fume and ground granulated blast-furnace slag (GGBS) as a precursor to
lime has been proven to be an effective sulfate soil stabilisation technique. However, which …

The role of gypsum level on the long-term strength and expansion of soil stabilised with
different lime contents is not well understood. This research, therefore, studied the effect of …

Soil comprises the five primary chemical oxides: silica, alumina, calcium, magnesia, and
ferric. The proportions of these oxides significantly influence the geotechnical characteristics …

To reveal the influence mechanism of ettringite (AFt) crystals and microstructure
characteristics on the strength of calcium-based stabilized soil, the strengths and …

Treating gypseous soils with lime or cement may induce remarkable swelling, resulting in
the deterioration of pavement subgrade or other foundation layers. To mitigate this swelling …

Sulphate-induced heaving in soils is a common problem caused mostly by the use of
calcium-based binders in the stabilisation of sulphate-bearing soils. Sulphate-induced …

Industrial and urban wastes have been generated over time due to urban development with
severe environmental and health implications. This paper reports the valorisation of waste …

Sulfate-induced expansion resulting from the formation of ettringite in sulfate-bearing soil
stabilised with calcium-based stabilisers is a problematic issue with technical and economic …

This paper analyzes the ability of magnesium oxide-based additives to stabilise a low
bearing gypsum marly soil, in order to reach subgrade requirements. This soil was not …
