... in performance, and laboratory tests indicate that the strength increases considerably with the inclusion of coir fibres. However, there is a lack of a proper methodology for quantifying the strength and stiffness of soil due to the inclusion of fibres. This paper discusses a few experimental results, different...

... tests (strength, hydraulic conductivity, and cyclic freeze-thaw). Pour évaluer le succès de la technologie ALFA (Aluminium, Lime and Fly ash ou aluminium, chaux et cendres volantes) pour stabiliser et solidifier des stériles produisant de l'acide au moyen de formation d'ettringite, des échantillons de...

...M. Kitazume; K. Hayano In this study, field and laboratory tests were conducted to investigate the strength properties and variance of cementtreated ground, constructed with dredged soils mixed with a small amount of cement by the pneumatic flow mixing method, which has been recently developed...

...H. Åhnberg Common estimates of the design strength of soft soils stabilised by deep mixing do not take into account the effect of the confining stresses on the behaviour of the material. This is largely an effect of the limited knowledge of how different consolidation stresses affect the strength...

... during the mixing operation. As part of the EC-funded project ‘EuroSoilStab’, aimed at improving the methods of stabilisation of organic soils, a number of investigations have been made on Swedish peats. To study the effect of initial loading during hardening on the strength of stabilised peat...
