Microstructural Characteristic Of Lateritic And Marine Clay Soil
Soil conditions will always vary as a reaction to weather, composition, and age. As a result of such changes, it may contribute to either the favourable or unfavourable state of the soil. A good ground foundation is required for a solid construction foundation. Lateritic soil and marine clay soil...

| description | Soil conditions will always vary as a reaction to weather, composition, and age.
As a result of such changes, it may contribute to either the favourable or unfavourable
state of the soil. A good ground foundation is required for a solid construction foundation.
Lateritic soil and marine clay soil used as soil samples for this investigation are examples
of weak soil. It is considered unsuitable due to the visible presence of high moisture
content. It often occurs as a slurry, including a considerable amount of expandable clay
minerals. Working with marine clay soil is extremely difficult owing to its strong impact
on moisture content. The physical qualities of the soil influence its strength and stability.
Soil with a high capacity and structure is more stable. When it comes to soil, an admixture
is a substance implemented to enhance soil characteristics, structure, and ability. For the
stabilizing admixture materials, cement and lime were selected. Standard Proctor test is
a compaction test that will determine the effects of these stabilizing materials toward the
compaction process for their density and moisture content results. The effects of cement
and lime are majorly focused on the moisture content. Higher cement and lime
composition give less moisture content to achieve maximum dry density, while lime
results from using up an existing moisture content to perform the pozzolanic reaction.
The reaction alters the microstructure of the treated soil. Theoretically, both stabilizing
agents consist of the same reaction outcomes. This research and findings will contribute
to extra knowledge on understanding the mechanism of stabilizing materials. |
