Identification of soil properties based on accelerometer records and comparison with other methods

Effect of using cemented sand as a replacement layer beneath a strip footing

“…Cement is considered the oldest additives since starting of soil stabilization technology Sherwood [1] and Euro Soil Stab [2] Soil treatment with cement additives (e.g. lime, gypsum, cement, and fly ash) has been a ground improvement technique in foundation engineering, road construction, and geotechnical engineering for many years (Choobbasti et al [3], Choobbasti et al [4], Sarokolayi et al [5,6], Tavakoli and Kutanaei [7], Mashhadban et al [8]). Cementation of sandy soil leads to increases the stiffness, shear strength, compressive strength, brittle behavior, and decrease compressibility and permeability of the material (Kutanaei and Choobbasti [9]; Mashhadban et al [10]).…”

Cement-Stabilized Waste Sand as Sustainable Construction Materials for Foundations and Highway Roads

“…Several studies were carried out to investigate the effect of cementitious additives (steel slag, Portland cement, lime, fly ash, gypsum, cement slag, aluminum filler, marble dust, and magnesium oxides) on the engineering properties of soils used for road construction and foundations [ 18 , 19 , 20 , 21 , 22 , 23 , 24 ]. Most of these studies showed a considerable increase in strength and stiffness and a decrease in the swelling potential and compressibility of the treated soils.…”
