Portland Cement Treated Soil: Evaluation and Conflict Results

In spite of soil treatment using Portland cement being well documented, it is hard to find all the contents related this topic in one document. This paper aims provide information inventory about chemical and mechanical changes that take place properties, alteration engineering characteristics which occur - mixtures. The mechanism over time documented as well. Some conflicted results were detected literature such moisture – dry density relationship dynamic properties treated by cement. suitability an additive for different types discussed based on obtained authors. Based methodologies followed laboratory field studies, mixture process involves deep shallow mixing powder or slurry (grout). Finally, discusses sustainability a manufacturing product. Generally, stabilizer induces significant increase strength, workability, durability. Permeability swelling potential are significantly decreased. addition, considerable improvement compressibility achieved mixture. Negative environment impact major inherent disadvantages production, where production responsible 5 8% total anthropogenic CO2 emission. Furthermore, high energy consumption, depletion resources weakness against sulfate attack, carbonation organic materials effects cement-treated soil. So, partial full replacement more sustainable recommended.
