... improvement, a geopolymer-based binder is developed to increase the adhesion between RWG aggregates. Durability is assessed by measuring the unconfined compressive strength ( UCS ) after immersion in water for varying durations to assess the resistance to degradation when exposed to groundwater interactions...

... such as lime stabilisation are ineffective in strength improvement due to the unreacted organic fibres formed in the soil. This paper investigates the strength enhancement of clay soils through the application of two geopolymers synthesised from (i) ground granulated blast furnace slag, a high-calcium and (ii...
