Deep Mixing Induced Property Changes in Surrounding Sensitive Marine Clays

TL;DR: In this paper, a field study of installation effects of deep mixed columns on properties of the sensitive Ariake marine clay is presented, showing that the water content of the surrounding clay decreased while the concentration of cations increased as sampling locations approached the columns.

Transformation of Clay Minerals by Calcium Hydroxide Attack

TL;DR: Calcium hydroxide was allowed to react with various clays, other silicates, and quartz at slightly elevated temperatures for several months, and the reaction products were examined by X-ray diffraction, DTA, and electron microscopy, and were shown to be poorly-crystallized calcium silicate hydrates of the tobermorite family.
