Effect of chlorides and sulphates on lime treated marine clays

TLDR
In this article, a test program was carried out to study the changes in the particle level of soil systems attributed to lime in a marine environment and the formation of various new reaction products due to soil-lime reactions were identified by X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) and the same was investigated using Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM).

Sulphate attack and ettringite formation in the lime and cement stabilized marine clays

G. Rajasekaran
- 01 Jun 2005 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reviewed the earlier reported case histories of sulphate attack in lime and cement stabilized clays and a list of precautionary measures to be adopted for controlling the ettringite formation have been suggested.

Quantification of the effects of nitrates, phosphates and chlorides on soil stabilization with lime and cement

TL;DR: In this paper, the performance of different mixtures in terms of soil stabilization was assessed by performing mechanical tests on samples submitted to several curing conditions (temperature and humidity) and the results showed that the tested compounds are likely to alter the soil stabilization processes and thus lower the mechanical performance of the stabilized soil.

Ettringite formation and behaviour in clayey soils

TL;DR: In this article, a set of physico-chemical experiments and XRD tests were performed to investigate the process of ettringite formation and to explore its possible performance in clayey soils.

Resistance of MgO–GGBS and CS–GGBS stabilised marine soft clays to sodium sulfate attack

TL;DR: In this paper, reactive magnesia and carbide slag were used to activate ground granulated blastfurnace slag (GGBS) to stabilise a marine soft clay, and the stabilised clays were subjected to accelerated sodium sulfate attack.
Journal ArticleDOI

Magnesium sulfate attack on clays stabilised by carbide slag- and magnesia-ground granulated blast furnace slag

TL;DR: Carbide slag and reactive magnesia activated ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBS) were used to stabilise soft clay subjected to accelerated magnesium sulfate (MgSO4) attack as discussed by the authors.

Lime-Induced Heave in Sulfate-Bearing Clay Soils

TL;DR: In this article, the authors found abundant thaumasite, a complex calcium-silicate-hydroxide-sulfate-carbonate-hyd rate mineral, forming a solid solution series with ettringite.

Practical problems from surprising soil behavior

TL;DR: In this paper, the aging of quick clay after sampling, the remolded strength increases in samples maintained at constant water content, time effects in freshly densified or deposited sand, in which natural sand deposits can lose strength if disturbed but regain strength over time periods of weeks to months, and apparently sound lime-stabilized soil that swells and disintegrates starting a few years after construction.

Geotechnical problems involved in foundations of structures in the North Sea

Laurits Bjerrum
- 01 Sep 1973 - 
TL;DR: Owing to the development of oil and gas fields in the North Sea, the Norwegian Geotechnical Institute has in recent years become involved in extensive investigations of the sea bed.

Combining Industrial Wastes with Lime for Soil Stabilization

TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined the potential for burning various industrial wastes combined with lime, in certain proportions, to produce a byproduct having cementing characteristics similar to ordinary portland cement (OPC).
