Portland Cement for A-4 group Soil Stabilization
Abstract: In the geotechnical practice, the stabilization of soil using cement is a necessary procedure when soilsdo not meet the geotechnical requirements i.e. they show low bearing capacity so it’s necessary toimprove their engineering properties generally adding lime or cement, or moisture of lime andcement. The aim of this research focuses on the description of a geotechnical laboratory tests plan forA-4 Group Soils according to AASTHO Soils Classification, generally consisting of …

Effect of lime content of lime-stabilized A-4 Soils in the Unconfined Compressive Resistance
Abstract: This paper is part of a research project carried out between Geotechnical Office of Dr. Barbero & collaborators and Weg Ingeniería, from Italy and Argentina, respectively. Given the multiple applications of soils improvement with lime, in this research we proceed to develop correlations on the bases of results obtained by geotechnical tests, according to international standards, realized in A-4 soils at different contents of lime. The goal is to have …

A Laboratory Methodological Proposal for “Geotechnical Lime Stabilization of A-4 Soils”
Abstract: This paper establish the beginning of a research process regarding the behavior of soils stabilized with lime. Generally, the geotechnical practice of soils stabilized with lime requires a first step conducted in the laboratory, to attest the features of “natural soils” in order to improve their behavior in term of geotechnical performance and, a second step, carried out onsite with experimental test fields, in order to verify the benefit obtained …
