Assessing the Influence of Loading Mode and Stabilization on the Deformation of Gypseous soil
Abstract: Gypseous subgrade soil usually exhibit acceptable strength when compacted with optimum moisture requirement and tested in dry condition. However, it loses its strength when came in touch with water. Such behaviour possesses a risk of failure when such soil is implemented in the construction of roadway embankment. In the present investigation, Gypseous soil was implemented in the construction of eight embankment models. The first model was the soil tested in …

Experimental Investigation of Effect of Soil Structure Interaction on Buildings
Abstract: In the conventional analysis and design, buildings are generally considered to be fixed at their bases, but in actual practice, the support condition depends on the type of soil on which it is founded. The flexibility of the soil medium allows the movement of soil and foundation, which decreases in the overall stiffness of building frames and results in a subsequent increase in natural periods of the system. Thus, the …
