Abstract:In this study, the effect of environmental exposure conditions on the long term mechanical property of surplus soils improved by lime and cement was investigated by conducting unconfined compression tests on the specimens cured under different conditions. As the result of the experiments after about 1 year (336 days) from specimen preparation, the unconfined compressive strengths of the soaked specimens were found to be the smallest, while those of the sealed specimens were the largest. Effect of soaking on th… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
