Download or read book Characterization of Compacted Expansive Clays written by Julius Kibiti M'Ndegwa and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2011-12 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The problem of expansive clay soil with regard to structural damage of buildings and roads was not recognized until the latter part of 1930. Up to now, some engineers are not familiar with certain characteristics of this soil. Many clay soils may be mistaken for expansive ones and costly structural designs be prepared for structures to be founded on them. Therefore, there is a need to characterize the soil for ease of identification. In this regard, Dr. M'Ndegwa points out that expansive soil can be easily identified through local climate, vegetation, ground topography, physical features of soil and simple laboratory tests. This book defines expansive soil, its occurrence, formation, mineralogical and chemical structure. The author explains the swelling behaviour of clay soil and discusses factors that influence actual amount of swell or shrinkage, concepts of swelling, modes of swelling and mechanisms of swelling. The classification and identification of this soil type including its compaction characteristics are also described. Finally, evaluation of swelling potential is discussed. Students of Civil Engineering and Practising Engineers will find this book very resourceful.

Download or read book Foundations on Expansive Soils written by Fu Hua Chen and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2012-12-02 with total page 301 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Foundations on Expansive Soils provides the practicing engineer with a summary of the state-of-the-art of expansive soils and practical solutions based on the author's experience. The book is organized into two parts. Part I deals with theory and practice, and summarizes some of the theoretical physical properties of expansive soils. It also discusses various techniques employed to found structures on expansive soils such as drilled pier foundation, mat foundation, moisture control, soil replacement, and chemical stabilization. Topics covered include the origin, mineralogical composition, and the basic structure of expansive soils; the migration of water, swelling potential, and swelling pressure; site investigations and laboratory testing; moisture control; and soil stabilization. Part II presents case studies on the following: distress caused by pier uplift; distress caused by the improper design and construction of a drilled pier foundation system; distress caused by heaving of footing pad and floor slab; distress caused by heaving of continuous footings; and distress caused by a rise of ground water.

This book was released on 1993 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Soil stabilization is the process whereby soils and related materials are made stronger and more durable by mixing with a stabilizing agent. These techniques are used for road construction in most parts of the world, although the circumstances and reasons for resorting to stabilization vary considerably.
