Combination of vacuum preloading and lime treatment for improvement of dredged fill

TL;DR: In this paper, a combination of vacuum preloading and lime treatment is proposed to address the issue of clogging around the prefabricated vertical drains (PVDs), where a certain percentage of hydrated lime (Ca(OH) 2 ) is added into the dredge fill slurry to enhance the engineering properties of the fill, such as the shear strength and permeability.

Impact of initial state on the fabric and permeability of a lime-treated silt under long-term leaching.

TL;DR: In this article, the long-term performance of lime-treated soil is still in question, especially in the case of the use of such soils to build earthen structures in permanent contact with water (i.e., dams, river levees, etc.).

Potential use of lateritic and marine clay soils as landfill liners to retain heavy metals.

TL;DR: The marine clay had higher retardation factors and lower diffusion coefficients, and its hydraulic conductivity was more compatible with Cr solution, than that of the lateritic soil.

Pozzolanic consolidation of stabilized soft clays

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used the pre-consolidation stress and compression index of the stabilized soft clay as a practical criterion for determining the optimum additive percentage in soft clays stabilization.

Effects of soil pulverization quality on lime stabilization of an expansive clay

TL;DR: In this article, the effects of soil pulverization quality on lime stabilization of a local expansive clay were investigated and the results showed that lime stabilization improved plasticity, workability, compressive strength, elastic moduli and swelling and compressibility behavior of the expansive clay.

Lime slurry pressure injection tames expansive clays

P J Wright
- 01 Oct 1973 - 
TL;DR: Lime slurry pressure injection (LSPI) as mentioned in this paper is a relatively inexpensive solution to unstable soil problems, which is used with a slab-on-grade foundation, where structural solutions to expansive clay soils are not feasible.

Techniques for Estimating the Longevity of Lime-Treated Expansive Clays

TL;DR: In this article, two techniques are presented that investigate the possibility of estimating the longevity of lime-treated expansive clays subjected to leaching, based on analyzing calcium concentrations and pH changes within accelerated leached laboratory specimens and their leachates during the leaching process.
