The effect of drainage conditions on the load response of soft clays reinforced with granular columns

Bou Lattouf, Hani Elias. (2013)

Various techniques have been used to improve weak and soft clays. A common method of ground improvement consists of the construction of columnar inclusions in the clay matrix. These columns are normally used to accelerate ...
Effect of sand columns on the drained load response of soft clays

Maalouf, Yara Salah. (2013)

Compacted sand columns constitute an economical and environmentally friendly technique to treat and reinforce weak soils to increase their load-carrying capacity and to allow the soil to support loads from overlying ...
Geomechanical characterization of the natural hemp - compacted clay interface -

Ammar, Ashtarout Hussien, (2016)

The interface parameters that govern the shear resistance mobilized between compacted clays and various solid interfaces are of interest in many geotechnical engineering projects. For example, the interface shear strength ...
Importance of lower-bound shear strength in the assessment of the probability of failure of spatially random clayey slopes -

Farah, Zeina Daoud, (2016)

The stability of a soil slope is traditionally evaluated by adopting a deterministic approach that is based on a target global factor of safety that is calculated either through limit equilibrium methods or through finite ...
Numerical modeling of triaxial tests on clays with sand-column inclusions -

Skeini, Hassan Adnan, (2015)

Ground improvement of soft soils using granular inclusions is an efficient technique that increases the rate of consolidation, reduces settlements, and enhances the load-carrying capacity of the composite system. The finite ...
Reliability of spatially variable undrained slopes -

Faour, Ghina Ali, (2014)

Conventionally, the stability of a soil slope is evaluated by adopting a deterministic approach that is based on a target global factor of safety that is calculated either through limit equilibrium methods or through ...
Triaxial response of natural clay reinforced with hemp fibers under fully drained conditions.

El Ahmad, Mohamad Ahmad (2018)

Different soil improvement techniques have been utilized to enhance the engineering properties of soft soils. Soil reinforcement by fibers is viewed as a viable and efficient ground improvement technique which is gaining ...
Triaxial response of natural clay reinforced with sand columns under partially drained conditions -

Rayess, Amjad Zouheir, (2015)

Engineers in the field of soil improvement have long referred to the method of constructing sand columns to improve soft clays. This method of soil improvement is relatively more environmentally friendly, economical, faster ...
Undrained response of fiber-reinforced cohesive soils -

Abou Diab, Assile Wajdi, (2017)

The use of fiber-reinforced soils as a ground improvement alternative has gained a renewed interest in the geotechnical community in recent years. Several studies have been conducted with the objective of investigating the ...
