Laboratory investigations on the lime stabilization of sensitive clays: shear strength development
TLDR
In this paper, a laboratory investigation on the quicklime stabilization of sensitive clays has shown that significant strength increase can be obtained if enough water content above the liquid limit is added to the clays.Abstract:
