The objectives of this investigation were to determine the effect
of pulverization on the strength, durability and swell characteristics
of a lime stabilized clay soil. Samples were prepared with three different
gradations which represented the pulverization of the soil.
Maximum clay lump sizes of 3/4", 1/2" and passing #4 sieve...
Combinations of cohesive and cohesionless soils are often encountered
when evaluating the engineering properties of soils. The
stress-volume characteristics of the mixed soil are found to vary according
to the proportion of each component. If the cohesive soil
composes more than a certain fraction of the material, the magnitude
of...
A sequence of soils derived from tuffaceous rocks was sampled
on the H. J. Andrews Experimental Forest and adjacent U. S. Plywood
land to determine some genetic and stability relationships. The
less than two micron size fraction from each sample was characterized
by x-ray diffraction with respect to crystalline clay...
Forest soils with low bulk densities are often considered less
susceptible to compaction than soils with higher bulk densities. The
objective of this study was to determine if soil strength controlled the
compression of soils with low bulk density. Four soils were selected
for this evaluation. Three of these were...
