Expansive soils pose significant challenges to structural integrity, primarily due to volumetric
changes that can lead to detrimental consequences and substantial economic losses. This …

Clayey soils often exhibit undesirable engineering behaviour such as low strength, swelling
and shrinkage characteristics etc. To improve these properties, the common method …

This study investigated improving black cotton soil, known for poor construction qualities, by
mixing it with lime kiln dust (LKD) and sand. Lab tests analyzed how these additives …

This paper presents a novel application of machine learning models to clarify the intricate
behaviors of expansive soils, focusing on the impact of sand content, saturation level, and …

In this study, attempt has been made to develop digital controller using a microcontroller to
automate the bottling plant and to make it user-friendly for village entrepreneur of our …

This paper presents and analyses a series of laboratory test results of physical and
mechanical characterisation obtained on an overconsolidated expansive clay treated by …

Le comportement des fondations superficielles dans un sol gonflant est un sujet de plus en
plus d'intérêt géotechnique, surtout avec la grande répartition des sols gonflants dans le …

This paper presents and analyzes the results of a series of identification; compaction and
direct shear tests performed in accordance with the Algerian standards on expansive …

L'humidification des sols argileux gonflants induit une augmentation importante du volume
du sol qui produiradonc un soulèvement différentiel des fondations superficielles. Pour cette …

Clayey soil is one of the problematic soils, as it is vulnerable to high volumetric change
(swelling and shrinkage), high plasticity properties, and other engineering related problems …
