Abstract:

California Bearing Ratio (CBR) is the ratio between load penetration of a substance against a standard material with the depth and penetration of the same speed. While Unconfined Compression Strength (UCS) is the amount of axial load per unit area at the time of the test specimen to collapse or when the axial strain reaches 20%. This study aimed to compare the CBR and UCS clay stabilized sand and cement for the pavement. The results showed that the CBR value increases, the value rises with increasing UCS cement mix. Then when the stabilization of clay with a mixture of 12% sand and 10% cement

Abstract:

In this study, the influence of fly ash (FA) content (0%, 10%, 20%, and 30%) on the alteration in the physical and mechanical parameters of loess is investigated. The influences of curing time (0, 14, and 28 days) and submergence and non-submergence conditions are analyzed as well. Analysis considers the variation in Atterberg limits (liquid limit, plastic limit, and plasticity index), compaction parameters (optimum moisture content (OMC), and maximum dry density (MDD)), unconfined compressive strength (UCS) stress, UCS strain, California bearing ratio (CBR) value, and swell potential.

Abstract:

The state of any road layer today and in the future is primarily dictated by the soil beneath its foundation, and knowing enough about the Engineering qualities of soil and the sub-soil condition is crucial in foundation design. This research looked at the geotechnical qualities of soils stabilized with Lime-and-Bamboo Stem Ash (BSA) mixture. Soil samples were obtained from each state in the study area and transported to the laboratory, where they were stabilized with 6% lime and 0 to 10% BSA.

Abstract:

Soft cohesive soils have low strength, high plasticity, and a large expansion ratio making them unsuitable as a road subgrade. This study aims to evaluate the potential of power plant waste (fly ash) from the Barapukuria Thermal Power Plant, Dinajpur, Bangladesh to improve the characteristics of such soft cohesive soil. X-ray fluorescence test conducted to classify the power plant fly ash and the type was identified as “Class F” according to “American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials” and "American Society for Testing and Materials".

High content of organic matter and fibre within peat results in a high degree of porosity; causing peat to have low bearing capacity. This study focuses on the application of nylon fibre as reinforcing material with fly ash as the chemical stabilizer to enhance the strength of the peat. The standard proctor tests were conducted to obtain the optimum moisture content (OMC) for all samples in which these OMC is then used for sample preparation of both the Unconfined Compressive Strength (UCS) tests and the California Bearing Ratio (CBR) tests.
