Abstract:
This paper studies the capture of organisms and materials in soil construction – a branch of ecological engineering dedicated to making soil in order to compensate for soil degradation. This approach takes all organisms to be ‘ecosystem engineers’, and often refers to earthworms as ‘collaborators’ in making soil. I examine the claim that such a convocation of worms amounts to a redistribution of agency and the underlying assumption that form-taking is the shaping of raw matter according to pre-existing forms. Drawing on processual anthropology, I question the distinction between living and mat

Abstract:
Subsurface infiltration and surface bioretention systems composed of engineered and/or native soils are preferred tools for stormwater management. However, the disturbance of native soils, especially during the process of adding amendments to improve infiltration rates and pollutant removal, may result in releases of nutrients in the early life of these systems. This project investigated the nutrient release from two soils, one disturbed and one undisturbed. The disturbed soil was collected intact, but had to be air-dried, and the columns repacked when soil shrinkage caused bypassing of water

Abstract:
This paper presents a method to quantify uncertainty using simulation techniques and approximate geotechnical methods. Unknown soil conditions are major contributors to uncertainty in any underground construction project. Soil conditions are unknown because generally soil samples taken from vertical boreholes show only the soils present in the discrete borehole locations. The soil profiles between the boreholes therefore contribute to project uncertainty, and construction practitioners must make assumptions about these soil profiles for construction planning and scheduling purposes.

Abstract:
his study investigated potential of the use of Drill Cuttings Ash (DCA) in the stabilisation of Niger Delta soils for road construction. Most of the in-situ soils encountered in the region are fine-grained and highly plastic that would require special treatment. Four soil samples were obtained and the following tests were carried out: classification, compaction, California Bearing Ratio (CBR), and Unconfined Compressive strength (UCS). Dry DCA quantities ranging 2 – 8 percentages by weight of the soil was added to the air-dried soils for the stabilisation process. They were classified as A-6 (

Abstract:
Unexpected failure of compacted soils was explained using design curves of the Rational Methodology for Compacted Geomaterial’s Density and Strength Analysis (RAMCODES). Forensic geotechnical evaluation, applied to a compacted soil used at a construction site, demonstrated that the bearing capacity of the soil was influenced by the water content and the dry unit weight. At the construction site, the only criterion used for quality control of the compacted soil was the minimum compaction percentage; the maximum dry unit weight (achieved using the standard Proctor test) was used when the soil wa

The construction industry has focused on trying to minimize and control the environmental impacts caused within the process of production and manufacture of fired bricks, for this reason the present research proposes five different alternative mixtures for the elaboration of ecological bricks, four of these based on soil-cement and one obtained through a geopolymerization process, using raw materials from the amazon region and the southern highlands of Ecuador, such as soil from the Centza mine (MC), sand from the Quiringue mine (MQ), organic correctors of husk rice (RH ), peanut shell (PS), n

Engineering geological investigation of some unstable and stable sections of the Ibadan-Iwo-Osogbo highway was undertaken to unravel the intrinsic reasons responsible for continuous pavement failure along this road. Eighty disturbed and forty undisturbed soil samples were collected at different depths from twenty test pits of six selected failed sections (FS) and two stable sections (SS). Road construction analysis was done on these soil samples using standard methods.

Abstract:
Soil improvement is one of the most important problems to be solved for shielding tunneling in the complex strata. Now the foam modifying soils technique has been widely used in shield tunneling construction. A new foaming agent used for soil properties improvement is developed and presented in this paper. This paper presents test research of soil properties improvement on sand in rich-water strata and clay soils from permeability, fluidity, compressibility and shear strength. Compared with the imported and domestic foaming agent, the basic performances of the newly developed foaming agent are

Abstract:
According to contractors in Florida, construction problems have emerged because pavement soils hold excessive water and are difficult to dry and compact. Recent research on the effects of soil suction and environmental conditions on drying rate characteristics of six types of troublesome granular soils is presented. Two types of tests were conducted for the study: soil suction tests using the thermocouple psy-chrometer method and drying rate tests using an environmental chamber. The experimental results showed that both the soil suction and relative humidity had direct effects on the soil-dryi
