Abstract:Foamed lightweight soil has been widely used in civil engineering, and the model for foam concrete has been employed to predict its strength. However, various previous strength models of foam concrete are generally based on the assumption of complete hydration, which is not the case for foamed lightweight soil. For example, Nambiar’s model (reference), a simple and widely used model, sets the ratio of hydrated water to cement by weight as an empirical constant, which is actually related to the water-cement rat… Show more
