The major problematic soils in semi-arid regions include expansive soils and collapsible soils. These two types of soils cause problems and are hazardous for buildings when moisture is introduced following a dry or semi-dry season. In order to assess the...

This study is primarily intended to present a damage constitutive equation under the combined action of confining pressures and freeze?thaw cycles by subjecting deep expansive clay to the consolidated undrained triaxial tests. We study the influence of t...

Slope failures in high plasticity clay deposits are common occurrences in many parts of the world. In western and central Alabama, expansive Prairie clays are commonly found, and shallow slope failures have occurred in both fill and cut slopes containing...

Fissured expansive soils were widely distributed in the South-to-North Water Transfer Project. Most of the fissures were filled with clay, which controlled the stability of the slope. With the method of layered filling?bevel cutting?refilling and a modul...
