TL;DR: In this article, a case study focused on the use of recycled gypsum, which is derived from Gypsum waste plasterboard, to improve the strength of soft clay soil for embankment construction projects taken in consideration environmental impacts was described.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors considered reinforced earth as macroscopically anisotropic and homogeneous, and described its gross behavior based on a knowledge of the mechanical properties and interactive contribution of each component.
Abstract: Plastic behavior of soil that is uniformly reinforced by fibers is studied. This analysis considers reinforced earth as macroscopically anisotropic and homogeneous, and it describes its gross behavior based on a knowledge of the mechanical properties and interactive contribution of each component. The rigid plastic model of reinforced earth is developed and an application of the proposed model is given. Experimental results are given.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used dilute colloidal silica as the stabilizer for passive site stabilization, which involves the slow injection of low-viscosity stabilizer in conjunction with the natural groundwater flow.

10 Aug 1984TL;DR: In this article, a method of enhancing the geotechnical properties of soil materials so as to control soil erosion including fugitive dust by treating the soil with a mixture of polyacrylic acids or polyacrylates, a dibasic acid or acid salt and a wetting agent in water is presented.
Abstract: A method of enhancing the geotechnical properties of soil materials so as to control soil erosion including fugitive dust by treating the soil with a mixture of polyacrylic acids or polyacrylates, a dibasic acid or acid salt and a wetting agent in water utilizes an aqueous solution of a polyacrylate emulsion, (said active polymer having a Mw of 1-5 million), sodium citrate and a surfactant (nonylphenol plus 10 moles ethylene oxide). The mixture is applied directly to the soil to be stabilized in either diluted or undiluted form whereby surface erosion in both quiescent areas and road beds can be controlled.
