Abstract:Alkali contamination induces swelling in the inherently non-swelling soils, resulting in heave severely damaging the sub and superstructures. Stabilization measures must be taken in vulnerable areas to prevent such colossal losses. Considerable research has been conducted regarding the swelling behavior of soils contaminated with alkalis and the impact of subsequent stabilization techniques utilizing different industrial byproducts and pozzolanic materials. However, there is a paucity of such studies on the Re… Show more
