Collapsible soils are susceptible to high and relatively sudden volume change after wetting
under a specific load. They tend to have a high initial void index (more than 40%), a low …

Soft clays are susceptible to uneven settlement due to its higher tendency of swelling and
shrinkage which could damage the structures. To prevent such damages various soil …

This paper investigates the effectiveness of nano-modification on the strength enhancement
of cement-stabilized dredged sludge (CDS). Three types of nanoparticles including nano …

This paper examines the effect of nano-silica and cement on the geotechnical properties of
bentonite, both individually and in combination. For this objective, the nano-silica and …

One type of problematic soil in geology and geotechnical engineering recognized as
collapsible soils can withstand relatively high pressure in an unsaturated state. The constant …

Polymer soil stabilisers have been shown to improve soil strength and erosion resistance,
for example on slopes where topsoil can be easily eroded. However, fundamental …

Bentonite falls under the category of weak and soft clays and has the tendency of large
settlement with low shear strength. Such soils are found on several areas of the Earth's crust …

This paper presents a comparative investigation of the short-and long-term effects of
seawater, lime, waste glass, and their mixtures in different proportions used as additives in …

Bioretention cells are considered to be promising low-impact development facilities and are
widely used in urban areas. Common bioretention cells are filled with planting soil, gravel …

The slope is easy to lose its stability under rainfall scouring and infiltration after excavation,
and soil improvement can effectively improve the erosion resistance of the slope. At present …
