Loess and loess-like soil formations are distributed in 3 regions across Mongolia. The lower part of the Orkhon Selenge river basin North Mongolia is main loess area another two located east Mongolia, Onon Ulz basins Khalka Gol area. Loess-like covers a total 109,000 sq.km or 6.95 per cent territory country. properties have been studied on basis 8 sections 83 samples. Fine sand fraction predomi...

Water migration changes the water distribution of loess and significantly affects engineering properties loess. However, because characteristics such as sensitivity special structure, it is still difficult to understand trend The objectives this study are investigate diffusion coefficient soil-water characteristic curve (SWCC) loess, focusing on effect temperature density, establish a mixed equ...

Affected by the difference of geological conditions, cause settlement road subgrade is different, and concealment disease strong. If it not timely maintenance, will further development disease. A finite element model established to study control technology using cement mixing pile for collapsible loess. The results showed that when loess relatively shallow penetrates loess, post-construction fo...
