Volume instability of expansive soils due to moisture fluctuations is often disastrous, causing
severe damages and distortions in the supported structures. It is, therefore, necessary to …

Expansive soils are problematic for direct engineering applications in their natural state
because of the shrink-swell phenomenon. Numerous stabilizers and methods have been …

Clayey soils are usually stiff when they are dry and give up their stiffness as they become
saturated. Soft clays are associated with low compressive strength and excessive …

Expansive clays are found in many countries worldwide, and they exhibit inherent volume
change during the seasonal moisture variation causing cracks, heaves, and damages to the …

Geopolymeric flocculation-solidification of the tail slurry of shield tunnelling spoil after sand
separation was investigated to replace the low-efficient flocculation and filter-pressing …

Railway transportation is one of the most advantageous modes of transportation because of
its high capacity, which obviates the increasing demand for conveying passengers and …

Expansive soils, also known as swell-shrink soils, are one of the most problematic soils in
highway construction and exhibit significant volume changes by swelling and shrinking …

Purpose The process of removing sediments from the bottom of dams generates large
amounts of dredged sediments, which are considered waste. The purpose of this research …

A large amount of phosphogypsum (PG, a solid waste) has been produced with the
development of the industry. Activated ground granulated blast-furnace slag (GGBS) has …

The rising demand for the construction of pavement infrastructure creates great pressure on
the production and transportation of virgin aggregates, which consumes high energy and …
