“…There are various ways to improve the soil's geotechnical properties, either through soil reinforcement or soil improvement. Soil reinforcements that are commonly used are: using a timber-based raft pile [1], geosynthetics [2][3][4], and using fiber as an additional in the soil mixtures [5,6].…”

For several decades, lightweight material applications have been extensively studied. Modifying various types of soil with EPS beads or lightweight geomaterials is an alternative construction material on site that can reduce excessive problems such as large deformation and lateral pressure. This study aims to examine the strength characteristics of lightweight geomaterials, namely lightweight modular block/LMB. LMB is composed of EPS beads, dredged soil, and cement. The cement amounts are 3%, 5%, 7%, and 9%, with EPS variations of 0.5% and 0.75% to the mixture weight. Laboratory tests were conducted to investigate the strength with unconfined compression and undrained direct shear tests. Before testing, the specimens were made using the one-layer static compaction method and were cured for 7, 14, and 28 days. This paper also presents explanations related to the specimens making and treatment by providing preliminary test results to compare the effectiveness of the three-layer and one-layer methods. Moreover, the curing treatments to avoid cracking were explained explicitly. The result shows linearity between both increasing the amount of cement and adding more curing time to the increase of the strength parameter. In contrast, adding more EPS decreased the strength, but adding cement helped increase the strength parameter with a remarkable value at C7% and C9%. Increasing the amount of EPS also reduced the density of the mixture by 18%–29%. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-2023-09-03-014 Full Text: PDF

“…Geocell-reinforced structures improved the properties of soil such as increased ultimate bearing capacity of soil, reduced settlement, capacity to carry additional stresses compared to that of unreinforced soil at same strain level etc. [14][15][16]. Reference [17][18][19][20][21], compared the geocell reinforced soil and GG reinforced soil with that of unreinforced soil.…”

Geosynthetics (GSN) are polymeric products used in Geotechnical Engineering for the purpose of improving the properties of the insitu soil. In this project, experimental work was carried out to determine the influence of presence of fines within granular soil on the CBR strength of soil reinforced with different GSN (Woven geotextile, Non-woven geotextile, Geogrid and Geonet). Two types of granular soil in disturbed state containing varying percentage of fines were selected from in and around the Chennai region. Soil type 1 contains high fines of about 40% (SHF) whereas soil type 2 contains less fines of about 7% (SLF). Unsoaked CBR (U-CBR) test was carried on unreinforced soil and on soil reinforced with different GSN placed at varying depths of D/5, 2D/5, 3D/5 and 4D/5 from top of soil (D is the total depth of soil), to determine the ideal depth of placement of GSN within SHF and SLF. Soaked CBR (S-CBR) test was carried on unreinforced soil and on soil reinforced with different GSN placed at an ideal depth determined from U-CBR test. Based on the experimental results, ideal depth of placement of GSN for SHF and SLF was found to be D/5 and 3D/5 respectively from top of the soil and Geogrid was found to be the best geosynthetic for reinforcing the granular soil containing high fines and less fines.
