The replacement of new binders with traditional ones such as lime and cement has caught
the eye of researchers in recent decades. The majority of researchers rely on the use of …

Though fibres are being used in concrete structures for a couple of decades, the use of
polymeric Synthetic Fibres (SyF) such as Polypropylene Fibre (PPF), Polyethylene Fibre …

Stabilizing heavy metal-contaminated soil with solid waste-based materials is a sustainable
approach. This study synthesized a coal bottom ash-based geopolymer and coir for the …

This work studies the effect of binder and fibre quantity on the mechanical behaviour of
“Baixo Mondego” soft soil, chemically stabilised with binders and reinforced/non-reinforced …

Nature-friendly concrete composites containing hooked-end steel fibers (SF) and copper
slag (CS) aggregates can play important roles in sustainable construction, preventing the …

High-speed railways with high load capacity and long-term performance have been
developed by the aid of high-performance construction materials for foundation treatments …

This work studies the effect of using two types of polymer (fibers and liquid) to enhance the
strength of cemented soft clay. Four polymer contents were used (0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.5 and 1% by …

The use of new materials for soil strengthening is crucial for geotechnical engineering,
especially in the methods commonly used for ground improvement, such as deep mixing …

This study aimed to investigate the effects of steel fibers on the properties of self-compacting
geopolymer (SCG), including flowability and fillability, compressive and flexural strength …

In order to verify the feasibility of using chopped carbon fibers to reinforce soil-cement, the
orthogonal test and verification test of flexural strength had been carried out and the …
