The ability of the compacted soils and treated/compacted soils to withstand loads as
foundation materials depends on the stability and durability of the soils. The design of such …

Unsaturated soils used as compacted subgrade, backfill, or foundation materials react
unfavorably under hydraulically bound environments due to swell and shrink cycles in …

The usage of locally available soil for construction purposes is a wise choice for enhancing
its engineering properties. Depending on the size of the particles, the silty and clayey soils …

ABSTRACT AI-based bi-input predictive models have been executed to forecast the bulk
density, linear and volumetric shrinkages and desiccation cracking of HSDA-treated black …

The unconfined compressive strength (UCS) of stabilized soil with lime and cement is a
crucial mechanical factor in develo** accurate geomechanical models. In the past …

Numerical and computational analyses surrounding the behavior of the bearing capacity of
soils near or adjacent to slopes have been of great importance in earthwork constructions …

Unsaturated lateritic soils are complex soils to work with due to moisture effects. So, the
determination of its properties requires lots of time, labor and equipment. For this reason, the …

Compression index is an effective assessment of primary consolidation settlement of clayey
soils, but the process of obtaining compression index is time-consuming and laborious …

Volumetric stability and erodibility are important soil properties influenced by moisture
through raindrops and eventual runoff and the rise in water tables during wet seasons …

Swell-shrink phenomenon experienced by foundation soils like the subgrade layer is a
major cause of failures in pavement facilities. This phenomenon is fundamentally caused by …
