In geotechnical engineering applications, it is very important to obtain the undrained shear strength of remolded soils accurately and reliably. This study aims a trustworthy solution determine clay mixtures using Atterberg limit test results in various states consistency. An experimental was carried out involving wide range varying plasticity geological origin. analyses, variation soil dependi...

The aim of this work is to improve the high performance mud bricks. latter was reinforced with rice straws as stabiliser leading an improvement physico-mechanical properties. Thus, physical characteristics clay such natural water content, density, atterberg limit, plasticity limit (Wp) and index (Ip) were determined. Their values are respectively 8.39%, 2025.73 Kg/m3, 47.66%, 29.75% 17.91%. use...

In recent years, the nanoscale zero-valent iron (NZVI) particles have been used successfully for the degradation of hydrocarboncompounds and remediation of other pollutants. Nevertheless, as far as we know, there is no specific study on the improvement of thegeotechnical properties of contaminated soils with hydrocarbon compounds by NZVI. This study used NZVI particles to remove gasoil in a cla...
