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

Therefore, it is necessary to improve or stabilize the soil so that the laterite soil can meet the requirements or specifications as embankment soil.

A new management policy regarding road runoff was proposed in 2002 by the Swiss Federal Office for the Environment (FOEN). This new concept is based on the diffuse infiltration of road runoff into embankment slopes, where soils will filter particles and contaminants. The shoulder lying between road surface and infiltration slopes must be impervious in order to maximise the amount of water reaching the slope and avoid losses in the road structure. The implementation of this new concept should lower the impact of roads on the environment, improve aquifer recharge and reduce construction costs. T

Compaction is the compaction of the moist soil by laying it in layers, rolling it by applying vibration. Compaction is widely used both for the frequency control of road embankments and embankment dams and in other important engineering projects. Therefore, it is important to determine the compaction parameters correctly. The lack of sufficient laboratory equipment at the construction sites and the limited deadline of work increased the importance of correlation equations.

The analysis of the current state of the ways of MSS management makes it possible to distinguish the following main directions: physical-mechanical, physical-chemical, biological and combined methods of handling it. MSS and its processing products (primarily biocoal (biochar, hydrochar), obtained as a result of incineration, pyrolysis, gasification, or hydrothermal carbonization) are used both individually

Abstract:

The formation of geotechnical structures on foundations composed of low-strength soils is associated with a number of risks and difficulties. Soils such as clay-salt slurries are characterized by low bearing capacity and a tendency to deform under load. In this study, a numerical simulation of the stability analysis of an embankment constructed on low-strength soils consisting of clay-salt slurries is carried out, and the study of the dependence of the stability and behavior of the embankment on the configuration of this foundation, without taking into account the embedment of rocks and with i

In general, clayey soil was used as material embankment for increasing road way level before road structure being constructed. Some types of clay are expansive soil, its have been contributing to pavement failures and subsequently causing increased annual maintenance expenditure of the road. The pavements design/redesign methods are found to be the primary cause of these failures. Thus, it is quite important to propose the Kuantan clay engineering properties chart for design criteria that can improve the embankment performance. Thus, it is quite important to investigate the Kuantan clay proper

Increased traffic volume has made it urgent to improve highway capacities by widening the existing embankments in south-eastern coastal areas of China. Adding a new embankment adjacent to the existing embankment will result in additional settlement within the existing embankment. And also, differential settlement will occur between the existing and widened embankment over soft soils. Excessive settlement and/or excessive differential settlement may cause longitudinal cracks, drop-off on the road surface, even local or global instability.

Abstract The major issues of building a road over soft soils are low bearing capacity and large settlements. The challenges of road construction on soft soils are enormous, so innovative and environmentally friendly methods are required. Geofoam is a type of lightweight infill material and was already used in Norway in road construction applications in 1972. Using Geofoam reduces compacted fill by 40%, less excavation required and less pulverization of native soil making this a time-saving and economically and environmentally viable solution.

Due to its remote location, mitigations to strengthen the soft clay are deemed too costly and/or require significant time to mobilize. Without mitigations, the presence of this very soft clay necessitates the roadway embankment to be constructed in phases to allow partial consolidation of clayey soils to take place before additional embankment fill can be placed. At each construction phase, the additional fill thickness and staging time are det
