A review on the geotechnical and engineering characteristics of marine clay and the modern methods of improvements
TL;DR: In this article, the geotechnical, micro-structure and engineering properties of marine clay are thoroughly reviewed and discussed and a guideline for the design and construction of projects on marine soils is provided.

Sustainable Improvement of Marine Clay Using Recycled Blended Tiles
TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of sizes and percentages of recycled blended tiles (RBT) on the physical and strength properties, including particle size distribution, Atterberg limits, compaction, and unconfined compressive strength (UCS) of marine clay were investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Linking rheological and geotechnical properties of kaolinite materials for earthen construction
TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe the rheology of kaolinite paste with and without dispersants and link the "engineering" geotechnical parameters to the material's intrinsic behaviour.
Journal ArticleDOI
A laboratory study on strength loss in kaolin surrounding lime-cement columns.
TL;DR: In this article, the authors evaluated property changes in laboratory-prepared kaolin surrounding lime-cement columns and found that the undrained shear strength properties in the surrounding kaolin were significantly affected by the migration of Ca2+, Na+ and K+ ions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Influences of Interface Properties on the Performance of Fiber-Reinforced Asphalt Binder
TL;DR: The analysis indicates a good correlation between the work of adhesion between asphalt and fiber and the effect of fiber reinforcement, and can be used as a basis for the selection of the proper fiber-asphalt combination to improve fiber reinforcement effects.

A new approach to the determination of the shear strength of clay by the fall-cone test
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the relationship between shear strength and cone penetration in the fall-cone test and compared the results with a comparison of the fall cone test with the traditional cone test.
Journal ArticleDOI
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
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.

Laboratory Experiments in The Stabilization of Clays With Hydrated Lime
K. E. Clare,A. E. Cruchley +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a study of the literature shows that hydrated lime has been used with success to stabilise soils in road foundations in certain parts of the world, and an investigation has therefore been initiated to study the effect of adding lime to British soils.
