Evaluation of plasticity and consolidation characteristics of migmatite–gneiss-derived laterite soils

Abstract: Information on plasticity and consolidation characteristics of soil materials have been found to be profoundly important for preliminary structural planning and designs since these properties influence soils' compressibility and settlement characteristics and, by extension, the performance of any engineering structure on the soils. The dependency or relationship of consolidation characteristics with plasticity characteristics of remolded migmatite-gneiss-derived laterite soils from southwestern Nigeria was sta… Show more

“…Bello et al [31] studied eight migmatite-gneiss-derived laterite samples collected from Southwest Nigeria. Soils were classified as 37% low-plastic clay (CL), 37% medium-plastic clay (CI), 13% high-plastic clay (CH), and 13% mediumplasticity clay (MI).…”

“…Many of these research works have been carried out on a broad scale. Only a few in-depth studies on residual soils underlain by an individual rock unit have been carried out [5]. This research work aims to assess the strength characteristics of gneiss derived residual soils within Akure metropolis as materials for road pavement structure.…”
