Stability of any structure depends on strength properties of underground soil on which it is
constructed. Structures basically transfer all the loads comes on itself directly to the ground …

Weak lateritic subgrades are more often than not encountered during road construction in
Ghana. This makes it necessary to find economically efficient ways to improve the …

Soil is frequently weak and unstable when subjected to strong loads. The study's goal was to
conduct a literature review on soil stabilization utilizing low-cost technologies. For the …

Shear strength behavior of expansive soil reinforced by randomly placed fiber depends on
the added materials' content. This research investigated the effect of the waste coconut …

Microbiologically induced calcite precipitation (MICP), a multidisciplinary technique
involving biology, chemistry, and soil mechanics, is used for improving the engineering …

Strength of subgrade soil plays a vital role in determining the thickness and service life of a
pavement. Thickness of pavement can be reduced by improving the strength and stability of …

The term soil reinforcement is conventional since decades ago for the stabilization of soft
ground such as of clay and peat. Numerous research has arisen in the utilization of natural …

Coir waste randomly mixed into soil is an alternative material for strengthening expansive
clay. However, these materials cannot reduce swelling due to water, requiring chemical …

Black cotton soil (BCS) has now been declared as one of the poorest soil among all soils
regarding civil engineering construction projects due to presence of its inherent clay mineral …

The construction of any infrastructure over a weak or cohesion less soil, which experiences,
low shear strength, high compressibility, differential settlements, low stiffness, and ductility is …
