Improvement of properties of weak soils in terms of strength, durability and cost is the key
from engineering point of view. The weak soils could be stabilized using mechanical and/or …

Abstract Stabilization/solidification (S/S) is a technique that has been widely used to treat
contaminated soils using several types of stabilizers, such as ordinary Portland cement …

People are forced to use all types of soil, especially bad soils, as infrastructure demands
grow. Different procedures must be used to ameliorate these poor soils, which are fragile …

Fuel oil flyash (FFA) produced in power and water desalination plants firing crude oils in the
Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is being disposed in landfills, which increases the burden on the …

Soil stabilization techniques are widely used for road construction to improve the properties
of the subgrade materials. Using new additives and stabilizers to improve soil properties can …

This paper presents the study carried out to assess and compare the performance of
marginal soils, namely marl, sabkha and dune sand stabilised with emulsified sulphur …

Plastic soil exhibits unfavorited geotechnical properties (when saturation), which causes
negative defects to engineering structures. Different attempts (included various materials) …

Sand dunes are one of the most common soil types all over the world, particularly in North
Africa and the Arabian Peninsula. These dunes, with their regional extensions, are …
