Abstract:

Soil corrosivity was an active problem of water pipeline damaged by corrosion that affects the performance of pipe manufacturers. In Addis ababa, groundwater pipelines were facing breakage and like due to corrosion damage of the pipes. The population of nearly four million were facing a shortage of clean and continuous water supply. Maintenace and replacing old pipes with new ones increased additional cost and delay of water supply for the city. For this investigation of corrosion, causes were conducted which soil property is the one factor. Investigation of soil corrosivity for a given specif

Abstract:

Soil research focuses mainly on soils on land, but the process of soil formation also takes place in shallow waters. Subaqueous soils form below the water surface, mainly on the bottom of shallow, stagnant waters such as bogs, swamps, lakes, and shoals in the sea. Three subaquatic soil profiles were investigated in the Strunjan Bay to study them in detail. The sites for the soil investigation were selected after observing the movement of seawater and thus its possible influence on subaquatic soils. All the soils studied are permanently and year-round under water. Therefore, all soil samples we

Abstract:

The Arkansas Department of Transportation (ARDOT) uses different types of metal culverts and cross-drains. Service lives of these culverts are largely influenced by the corrosion of the metals used in these culverts. Corrosion of metallic parts in any soil-water environment is governed by geochemical and electrochemical properties of the soils and waters. Many transportation agencies including ARDOT primarily focus on investigating the physical and mechanical properties of soils rather than their chemical aspects. The main objective of this study is to analyze the geotechnical and geochemical

Abstract:

The problem of ageing water pipes manifesting leaks and breaks is common to municipalities throughout Canada, North America, and the world. Among them, the City of Toronto has been confronted with water main infrastructure problems, currently encountering a break rate of roughly two occurrences per week over a network of 5347 km. The appropriate corrective action, which aims to restore pipe integrity and prevent future breaks and leaks, should be decided based on a general knowledge of the state of deterioration of the water main network, a thorough understanding of the governing failure modes

Abstract:

External corrosion is a major factor contributing to the deterioration of cast iron water mains; it weakens the pipe wall, which increases the risk of failure. External corrosion is a function of the interaction between the pipeline and the soil that surrounds it. The aggressiveness of soil towards cast iron is affected by soil properties such as resistivity, pH, and the presence of sulphate reducing bacteria. Water main sections and accompanying soil samples were collected from locations across Toronto within the framework of a comprehensive research project over a 2 year period. After carefu

Abstract:

Composting is an alternative for treating and recycling municipal solid waste. Composting directly on the soil changes the attributes related to soil acidity. The study aimed to evaluate the influence of municipal solid waste composting in a small scale system on the attributes related to the acidity of soils used for making compost piles. Soil samples were collected at depths of 0-5, 5-10, 10-20, 20-30 and 30-40 cm in four areas under composting (1C, 2C, 3C and 4C) and four adjacent reference areas with no history of composting (1R, 2R, 3R and 4R).

Abstract:

Abstract The facts of early non-performance of iron-based underground water pipes of the Kathmandu Valley (Nepal) are mostly due to the corrosive nature of the surrounding soil factors. A comparatively high percentage of the damage to the water pipelines in Nepal is anticipated, compared with the data reported in the developed countries. For the reasons, the quantitative data analysis of six kinds of the corrosive soil factors (i.e., moisture-holding capacity, pH, electrochemical resistivity, redox potential, Cl−, and SO4 2− ions) of 15 specimens, sampled from the Manohara Town Planning (MTP)

Abstract:

Constructing a bored pile produces a disturbed zone of soil adjacent to the pile, referred to as a “mudcake.” The physical properties of the mudcake are different from those of the surrounding soil. This paper reports research on bored piles in silt, clay, and sandy silt layers in Hangzhou, China. Laboratory tests were performed on samples of in situ soil, mudcake, and mudcake mixed with cement grout. The test results showed that mudcakes have a higher water content, higher void ratio, higher compressibility, lower friction, and lower shear strength than in situ soils. They also showed that mu

The results of work to strengthen the soil foundation of the chamber of lock № 5 of the Volga-Don Shipping Canal, carried out in 2016–2017, are analyzed. The need to carry out work to strengthen the soil was caused by an increase in the intensity of sedimentation of the central sections of the lock chamber, which began in 2005. To stabilize the chamber position, the technology of two-component jet grouting is implemented. This technology assumes the formation of several longitudinal soil-cement walls in the soils of the lock chamber base, which would transfer the load from the weight of the ch
