Abstract:Stabilisation of clay by mixing with lime is the most frequently used method of ground improvement today. The overall objective of the study presented in this paper was to investigate the effect of hydrated lime on the unconfined compressive strength of lime stabilised clays. In order to illustrate such effect, a number of unconfined compression tests were carried out; all the stabilized specimens were tested using unconfined compression apparatus. The unconfined compressive strength (UCS) of treated clay expe… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
