Abstract. The widespread distribution of loess collapsible and structurally unstable soils when saturated in our country, along with insufficient regulatory documentation for the design and construction of highways on these soils, necessitates scientific research in this field. In this context, we are conducting studies to investigate the stress-strain state of loess embankment bases, the changes in this state upon moisture exposure, and the nature of stability loss of the roadbed during the subsidence of its base. This paper presents the analysis results of the stress-strain state of embankme

Abstract:
When embankment is constructed on very soft soil, special construction methods are adopted. One of the techniques is a piled embankment. Piled (stone columns) embankments provide an economic and effective solution to the problem of constructing embankments over soft soils. This method can reduce settlements, construction time and cost. Stone columns provide an effective improvement method for soft soils under light structures such as rail or road embankments. The present work investigates the behavior of the embankment models resting on soft soil reinforced with stone columns. Model tests were

Abstract:
Soft soils cause problems in road subgrades because they have low bearing capacity. Embankments on soft ground need to be identified and reviewed before construction starts. Various soil reinforcement techniques can be used to improve soft soil conditions. This research focuses on using geofoam material as an embankment on soft soil. The aim is to analyze the modeling of soft soil embankment with geofoam. The research method is a numerical method using the Plaxis 2D version 2023 application. There are two models in this study, namely the embankment model without geofoam, 100 cm thick subgrade,

Abstract Soil reinforcement is technique to improve the engineering characteristics of soil. Several reinforcement methods are available for stabilizing the problematic soils (soft clay) like the use of Portland cement, lime, fly ash, ground freeing, jet grouting, prefabricated vertical drains, stone columns and thermal methods. Recently basal reinforcements are also being used as a method to improve the bearing capacity and settlement characteristics of the soft soil. The reinforcement consists of one or more horizontal layers of geosynthetic reinforcement installed at a base of the embankmen

The volumetric flask method was used to measure the LBW contents of the five soils.

Abstract:
Roads constructed on expansive clays may be adversely affected by the behaviour of the clay. Expansive clays suffer volume change due to changes in moisture content which causes heaving, cracking and the break up of the road pavement. Stabilisation of these types of soil is necessary to suppress swelling and increase the strength of the soil and thus partially decrease the thickness of road pavement layers. The use of by-product materials for stabilisation has environmental and economic benefits. Ground granulated blastfurnace slag (GGBS), a by-product material in Egypt, and lime are used in t
