Abstract:

Undisturbed and disturbed samples of cohesive soils were collected from eight different locations to investigate the possibility of estimating the Atterberg limits of cohesive soils from P-wave velocity measurements. Each soil type was classified according to the Unified Soil Classification System, and then Atterberg limits of soils were determined and P-wave velocity measurements carried out on the undisturbed samples of each soil type. P-wave velocity values were correlated with the corresponding values of Atterberg limits. It was found that liquid limit, plastic limit, and plasticity index

Abstract:

Atterberg limit tests were preformed on diesel oil contaminated soil and crude oil contaminated soil. The results show that Atterberg limits reduced with increasing of diesel oil content. When crude oil content changed from 0 to 8%, it has little effect on Atterberg limits. However, it rose from 8% to 16%, plastic limit slightly decreased, but liquid limit increased remarkably. A "pseudo-viscosity" caused by crude oil is the key factor for this phenomenon.

Abstract. Collapsing gullies are one of the most serious soil erosion problems in the tropical and subtropical areas of southern China. However, few studies have been performed on the relationship of soil Atterberg limits with soil profiles of the collapsing gullies. Soil Atterberg limits, which include plastic limit and liquid limit, have been proposed as indicators for soil vulnerability to degradation. Here, the soil Atterberg limits within different weathering profiles and their relationships with soil physicochemical properties were investigated by characterizing four collapsing gullies i

Abstract:

The importance of soil compaction for civil engineering construction and application cannot be over-emphasised. To perform soil compaction, numerous number of samples are required, with considerable time and laborious laboratory activities. This has necessitated the need to find models for the prediction of compaction characteristics, using easily determined soil properties. This work therefore undertook a study of the correlation potential of compaction characteristics and Atterberg limits of soils, with a view to modelling compaction characteristics, using Atterberg limits.

The present paper reports the results of laboratory investigation on effect of Coconut Shell Powder (CSP) on lime treated Black cotton (BC) soil. The soil modified with 2%, 4%, 6%, 8% and 10% of lime is studied to get the optimum content of lime. It is then treated with various different dosages of Coconut Shell Powder (CSP). Atterberg limits, Compaction and Free Swell Index (FSI) tests were conducted. The liquid limit of the soil lime mixture treated with different dosages of CPS decreases with curing period while the plastic limit and shrinkage limit increases with curing period. Further stu

Abstract: This study investigates the geochemical and geotechnical properties of soils from Uwelu, Benin City, Nigeria (6.3861°N, 5.5827°E, 107 m altitude), to assess their engineering relevance. Samples from two sites underwent tests including specific gravity, sieve analysis, Atterberg limits, compaction, and California Bearing Ratio (CBR), following ASTM and AASHTO standards. X-ray fluorescence (XRF) was used to determine the presence of major oxides and trace elements. The soils, classified as A-2-4 and A-2-6 by AASHTO, had specific gravities of 2.55 and 2.54.

Pavement deterioration can be caused by expansive road subgrade material. Swelling properties are one of the problems on expansive soils. The swelling properties can be decreased by stabilization using additives. The potential of using chitosan biopolymer for soil improvement is attractive due to environmental friendliness and sustainability. This research was conducted to determine the effect of chitosan biopolymer from shrimp shell waste on the Atterberg Limits of expansive soil. This test can be used as an initial assessment of soil strength and stiffness parameters. The Atterberg Limits te

The addition of salt to pore water can affect the behaviour of the soil by influencing the electrochemical forces exist between the solid, liquid and dissolved phases. Changes in geotechnical behaviour of fine grained soils under the influence of ionic concentrations and pH depends on the chemistry of the soil constituents and the pore fluid chemistry. The geotechnical modifications of soil behaviour largely depend on the clay particles and the diversities in the nature of the clay types is due to their specific surface and the net electrical charge on them.
