Stabilization of non-plastic soils with calcium hydroxide-calcium carbonate mixtures
(Virginia Polytechnic Institute, 1964)
The influence of calcium carbonate on the properties of four non-plastic lime-stabilized soils was studied. The four soils span a range in mica content and sand content. It was found that carbonate generally increased ...
Mica stabilization with lime, portland cement and lime-calcium carbonate
(Virginia Tech, 1964-02-05)
<p>Research was conducted to study the unconfined compresslve
strength of a mica soll stabilized wlth various
percentages of lime, Portland cement, and combinatlons of
calcium hydroxide and calcium carbonate. In order to ...
Comparison of open and closed system freezing and thawing tests of a lime stabilized clay soil
(Virginia Polytechnic Institute, 1965)
Effect of freezing and thawing on unconfined compressive strength of clay-lime mixture with and without air entraining agent
(Virginia Polytechnic Institute, 1964)
The main objective of this study was twofold:
1. To determine the effect of freezing and thawing on the loss in strength of lime-soil mixture.
2. To investigate the effect of the addition of an air entraining agent on ...
Lime, cement, and lime-cement stabilization of a clay soil
(Virginia Polytechnic Institute, 1962)
The main purpose behind this thesis was to study the variations of strength in a soil after it had been stabilized with various percentages of lime, cement, and combinations of the two. In both cases where the additives ...
