In this paper an artificial neural network model is developed to estimate the unconfined compression strength of Deep Cement Mixing(DCM) treated soil. A database which consists of a number of unconfined compression test result compiled from 9 clay sites is used to train and test of the artificial neural network model. Developed neural network model requires water content of soil, unit weight of soil, passing percent of #200 sieve, weight of cement, w-c ratio as input variables. It is found that the developed artificial neural network model can predict more precise and reliable unconfined compression strength than the conventional empirical models.

In Thailand, the electricity consumption is very high with the intention of reduce high temperature in the building. Since 2000, a lot of people paying attention to Green-Building concept. A similar concept is natural building, which is usually on a smaller scale and tends to focus on the use of natural materials that are available locally. Therefore, the Earth-Block (EAB) product is appropriated approach to reduce energy consumption in the buildings. The EAB is produced with environmentally friendly process, which does not release harmful pollution and effective cost. The main significant character is durable materials for building construction. This study aims to develop the new thermal insulation by using soil-cement with vetiver grass fibre. Additionally, it describes the innovative systems used in production of EAB materials by mixing the soil-cement with vetiver grass fibre. This paper reveals lowest costs, space configurations changing and greater design flexibility for constructing the building.

Soil-cement stabilization is a type of ground improvement method which has been used to improve the engineering properties of soil. The unconfined compression test is the commonly used method to evaluate the quality of the stabilized soil due to its simplicity, reliability, rapidity and cost-effectiveness. The main objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of recovered carbon black (rCB) on the strength characteristic of cement-stabilized sand. Various rCB contents and water to cement ratios (w/c) were examined. The unconfined compression test on stabilized sand with different curing times was also conducted for a reconstituted specimen. From the test result, it was found that the compressive strength of cement-stabilized sand increased with the increase of the rCB content up to 3% and the curing time and with the decrease of the w/c ratio, showing that the optimum rCB concentration of the tested stabilized sand was around 3%. In addition, a prediction equation was suggested in this study for cement-stabilized sand with rCB as a function of the w/c ratio and rCB concentration at 14 and 28 days of curing.

The frost heaving is related with thermal conduction rate and permeability. If the thermal conduction rate can be controlled, it is effective to prevent from frost heaving. If soil mixed with shredded tire which has relatively lower thermal conduction rate than soil, it helps preventing from frost heaving. However, in this case, the shear strength can get weak. In this study, we compared thermal conduction rate of soil and shredded tire, and test uniaxial compression strength of soil which is mixed with shredded tire and cement in different ratio.

As the Deep Cement Mixing Method is composed of drilled natural soft soil structure and injected cement slurry to be mix together in it, the nature of excavated ground is influenced directly to the application of constructability. Also the nature of in situ soil is the main material, the mix design and construction work plan should be established before the investigation of soil which is performed through the whole site confirm the soil parameter before construction. The nature of investigated soil and water level as should be performed accurately.

A single rigid footing constructed on sandy-clay soil was modeled and analyzed using FLAC software under static conditions and vertical ground motion using three accelerograms. Dynamic analysis was repeated by changing the elastic and plastic parameters of the soil by changing the percentage of cement grouting (2, 4 and 6 %). The load-settlement curves were plotted and their bearing capacities compared under different conditions. Vertical settlement contours and time histories of settlement were plotted and analyzed for treated and untreated soil for the different percentages of cement. The results demonstrate that adding 2, 4 and 6 % of cement under specific conditions increased the dynamic bearing capacity 2.7, 4.2 and 7.0 times, respectively.

Waste materials are being produced in huge quantities globally, and the usual practice is to dump them into legal or illegal landfills. Recycled tiles (RT) are being used in soil stabilisation which is considered as sustainable solution to reduce the amount of waste and solve the geotechnical problems. Although the stabilisation of soil using RT improved the soil properties, it could not achieve the standard values required for construction. Thus, this study uses 20% RT together with low cement content (2%) to stabilise soft soil. Series of consolidated undrained triaxial compression tests were conducted on untreated and RT-cement treated samples. Each test was performed at 7, 14, and 28 days curing period and 50, 100, and 200 kPa confining pressures. The results revealed an improvement in the undrained shear strength parameters (cohesion and internal frication angle) of treated specimens compared to the untreated ones. The cohesion and friction angle of the treated samples were increased with the increase in curing time and confining pressure. The peak deviator stress of treated samples increases with the increment of either the effective confining pressures or the curing period. Microstructural and chemical tests were performed on both untreated and RT-cement treated samples, which included field emission scanning electron microscopic (FESEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and energy dispersive X-ray spectrometer (EDX). The results indicated the formation of cementation compounds such as calcium aluminium hydrate (C-A-H) within the treated samples. Consequently, the newly formed compounds were responsible for the improvement observed in the results of the triaxial tests. This research promotes the utilisation of RT to reduce the amount of cement used in soil stabilisation for cleaner planet and sustainable environment.

4대강 사업이나 항만의 지속적인 건설 및 관리 등으로 인해 준설점토의 발생량은 꾸준히 증가할 것이다. 이러한 준설점토를 매립재료 등으로 유효하게 재활용하기 위해 지반공학 관련 기술자들은 많은 노력을 기울여 왔다. 그러나 준설점토가 일반적으로 매우 높은 초기 함수비를 갖고 있으며 동시에 강도 역시 매우 낮은 점을 생각하면 준설된 점토의 처리를 위한 장비의 주행성 확보나 혹은 압밀을 위해 많은 시간이 필요하다는 등의 다양한 문제에 직면하게 된다. 최근까지 경제성과 효과면에서 탁월한 시멘트를 이용한 준설점토의 처리 등에 많은 연구 성과가 발표되고 혹은 현장에서 효과적인 처리공법으로 사용되고 있지만, 시멘트 자체가 지반 내에서 6가크롬이나 수은 등의 중금속을 유출하는 경우 환경 부하의 증가 뿐만 아니라 지하수를 통한 오염 확산 등에서 우려되는 점이 없지 않다. 따라서 가급적 시멘트 혼합비를 낮출 수 있는 방안에 대한 검토가 이루어져야 한다는 것이 저자들의 판단이며 이를 위해 빈배합 시멘트 혼합점토의 거동에 대해 연구를 수행하였다. 본 논문에서는 특히 압밀 특성에 초점을 맞추어 분석하였으며 연구 결과 압밀 침하량의 억제와 압밀속도의 증가가 동시에 나타나는 시멘트 고화제 혼합비 시작점은 4%~6% 정도인 것을 확인하였다.

폐기물 매립지 차수층에 국내 투수계수 기준치($k=1{\times}10^{-7}cm/sec$)에 만족하는 벤토나이트와 시멘트의 적정첨가량을 알아보았다. 차수층의 모토는 토양 통일 분류법에 따라 CL 토양과 SM 토양을 사용하여 투수(KSF 2322)와 압축강도(KSF 2314)를 시험하였다. 실험결과, 국내 투수계수(k) 기준치에 만족하기 위해서는, CL 토양에는 벤토나이트 5%와 시멘트 5%를 첨가할 때, $k=9.98{\times}10^{-8}$이었고 ${\sigma}_{28}$은 $12.25kg/cm^2$이었다. SM 토양에서는 벤토나이트 15%와 시멘트 5%를 첨가하였을 때, k값은 $9.86{\times}10^{-7}cm/sec$이었으며 ${\sigma}_{28}$은 $18.72kg/cm^2$이었다. 따라서, 폐기물 매립지 차수층 건설에서, 적정량의 벤토나이트와 시멘트를 CL과 SM형 차수층 모토에 혼합할 때 국내 투수 기준치에 만족하였다.
