May 31, 2024 · Here are my top recommendations for plants that can flourish in dense, clay soil with partial shade to full shade exposure: 1. Astilbe. With feathery, colorful plumes Astilbe provides stunning blooms in shady gardens. It thrives …

Apr 13, 2022 · The key to understanding the impact of partial drainage on the response of a clay/column composite is to investigate the buildup of contact stresses and pore water pressure in the column and the surrounding clay during loading.

Mar 23, 2023 · Partial drainage occurs because of inevitable radial flow from the clay to the columns during foundation loading. Ignoring the positive effect of partial drainage on the short-term stability of foundations on reinforced clay may lead to over-conservative design.

Apr 30, 2015 · Our analysis showed that coupling leakage boundary conditions with favorable soil permeability anisotropy could significantly decrease the maximum ground settlements induced by the leakage, which leads to an increase in the width of the surface settlement trough.

Based on the asymptotic state and dilatancy characteristics, an asymptotic state constitutive model for the saturated clay was established by introducing the strain increment ratio into the stress path constitutive model.

Feb 16, 2025 · The innovation of this review paper lies in its focused evaluation of calcined impure kaolinitic clay as a sustainable and technically viable partial replacement for Portland cement, addressing both performance attributes and practical implementation challenges.

Apr 11, 2024 · The present research investigates efficiency of remove and replace approaches for the mitigations of the soft clays in the fact that analyses have been based upon the basic principles of stress-deformation. The main objective of the present work is to investigate the effectiveness of the replacement method.

Jul 7, 2016 · The performance of partial replacement for soft clay under square footing has been analysed using finite elements methods (PLAXIS 3D program), where clay soil and sand material were simulated...

In this study bricks were produced with sewage sludge additions ranging from 20, 25, 30 and 40% by dry weight respectively and compare produce brick with regular brick. Bricks with a sludge content of up to 40 % were capable of meeting the relevant technical standards.

This paper aims to examine the effect of partial replacement with crushed concrete as a recycled material to enhance the bearing capacity and to decrease the settlement of soft clay.
