Effect of different mixing ratios of polystyrene pre-puff beads and cement on the mechanical behaviour of lightweight fill

TL;DR: In this paper, a laboratory study on the formation of a lightweight fill material by blending soil with polystyrene pre-puff (PSPP) beads and other binders such as cement is presented.

Strength and compressibility of lightweight cemented clays

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the strength and compression characteristics of lightweight clays with non-to high swelling potential and showed that the workable state, the optimum water content to produce the lightweight cemented clay, is about 1.9 times the liquid limit.

Estimation of compressive strength of cement-treated marine clays with different initial water contents

TL;DR: In this article, a formula to estimate unconfined compressive strength of cement-treated marine clays is proposed, which has a form similar to the gel-space ratio theory.

Experimental and numerical analyses of lightweight foamed concrete as filler for widening embankment

TL;DR: In this article, a series of compressive strength tests, dynamic triaxial tests, dry-wet cycle tests, and water immersion tests were performed to analyze the variation of the lightweight foamed concrete strength with design dry density and the influence of water and adding glass fiber (GF) on the properties of the LWFC.
