The expansive development of infrastructure has led to increased consumption of virgin
aggregates in road construction, resulting in significant environmental impacts. To address …

The incorporation of waste materials into cementitious binders serves as a strategy to
diminish waste volume and lower carbon emissions. This study presents an in-depth …

The stabilization and application of expansive geomaterials are critical in geotechnical
engineering. These naturally expansive materials exhibit complex hydro-chemo-mechanical …

Expansive soils are extremely susceptible to environmental changes. Under conditions of
drought or heavy rainfall, the soil tends to develop cracks, thereby affecting its mechanical …

This research delved into the mechanical and fatigue attributes of hemp fiber–reinforced
concrete (HFRC) using both natural crushed aggregates (NCA) and recycled concrete …

This research investigates the effect of soaking times, number of wetting-drying (WD) cycles,
saturation levels, sample dimensions, and cement contents on the durability performance of …

The physicochemical properties of steel slag were investigated using SEM and IR, and it
was found that free calcium oxide and free magnesium oxide in steel slag produce calcium …

The pore structure of hardened ordinary cement becomes coarser due to microstructural
changes brought about by drying-wetting cycles. However, the production of blast furnace …

Deep cement mixing (DCM) piles are widely utilized for reinforcing soft clay foundations,
particularly in coastal regions where soil stability is critical. Monitoring the quality and early …

Shield tunnel muck are usually discarded due to high water content and poor engineering
properties, resulting in occupation of land sources and waste of soil sources. Meanwhile …
