Combined Effect of Lime Fly Ash and Geo Synthetic Reinforcement on Soil

EasyChair Preprint no. 3100

Abstract

Soft soil possesses low strength and undergoes excessive volume changes, making its use in the construction activities very difficult. The properties of the soft soils may be altered in many ways viz, mechanical, thermal, chemical and other means. Modification of soft soils by chemical admixtures is a common stabilisation method for such soils. Soil reinforcement is another one of the most popular ground improvement techniques, especially for granular soils. Geotextile and Geomembrane reinforcement are suitable soil reinforcement techniques. In this investigation, traditional stabilising agents such as cement, lime, fly ash etc. are applied in addition to geotextile and geomembrane reinforcement. This project is an attempt to study the combined effect of geotextile and geomembrane reinforcement as well as traditional stabilizing agents in soil improvement.

Keyphrases: Geomembrane, Geotextile, stabilization
