In recent decades, many geotechnical engineering researchers have used End of Life Tires
(ELT) in different shapes for the purpose of soil reinforcement. One of the sub-products that …

As a sub-product in the treatment process of End of Life Tires (ELTs), Waste Tire Textile
Fibers (WTTFs) are hazardous waste materials that are traditionally buried or burned as …

Abstract Waste Tire Textile Fibers (WTTFs), waste materials derived from scrap tires, have
been used to enhance the mechanical properties of Rammed Earth (RE) and Cement …

In the current construction practice, reinforcing the soil is an effective and reliable ground
improvement technique for increasing the strength and stability of the soil in various …

This study presents geotechnical characteristics of a low-plasticity clay improved by xanthan
gum biopolymer, which is an innocuous microbially induced polymer with high tensile …

In this paper, the cyclic behavior of Rammed Earth (RE) elements is investigated by
imposing strain-controlled cyclic loads. RE samples comprise plain soil, Waste Tire Textile …

Expansive soils are problematic for their relatively low load bearing capacity and extensive
swelling-shrinkage deformations. Therefore, treatment of such soils is often considered to be …

Nano-zeolite was used in the present study as a substitute for a part of lime and then
inclusion polypropylene fiber in stabilized soil matrix to develop the soil stabilization method …

Collapsible soils such as loess, which are naturally unsaturated, are a type of problematic
soil that has high resistance in dry conditions but when wet and saturated suddenly …

The fundamental mechanisms controlling shear strength and deformability behavior of clay-
fiber mixtures have still not been well established, nor the constraints that may affect their …
