  2. Remediation of contaminated sites with cement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Remediation_of...

    A 1,300,000-square-foot (120,000 m 2) complex of mixed residential, office, retail and commercial space is being built on 15 acres (61,000 m 2) of former industrial land in downtown Victoria that was contaminated by lead. 10 tonnes of soil was treated with cement, which was mixed into the soil on site simply by using an excavator bucket. The ...

  3. Proctor compaction test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proctor_compaction_test

    The original Proctor test, ASTM D698 / AASHTO T99, uses a 4-inch-diameter (100 mm) by 4.584-inch-high (116.4 mm) mold which holds 1/30 cubic feet of soil, and calls for compaction of three separate lifts of soil using 25 blows by a 5.5 lb hammer falling 12 inches, for a compactive effort of 12,375 ft-lbf/ft 3.

  4. Soil stabilization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soil_stabilization

    Soil stabilization is a general term for any physical, chemical, mechanical, biological, or combined method of changing a natural soil to meet an engineering purpose. [1] Improvements include increasing the weight-bearing capabilities, tensile strength, and overall performance of unstable subsoils , sands, and waste materials in order to ...

  5. Environmental remediation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Environmental_remediation

    Stabilization involves the addition of reagents to a contaminated material (e.g. soil or sludge) to produce more chemically stable constituents; and Solidification involves the addition of reagents to a contaminated material to impart physical/dimensional stability to contain contaminants in a solid product and reduce access by external agents ...

  6. Deep cement mixing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deep_cement_mixing

    Deep cement mixing consists of using specially designed equipment, such as augers or mixing paddles, to mechanically mix the soil with an in-situ binder. The process simultaneously breaks up the soil without removing it, injects a binder at low pressure and thoroughly mixes the binder with the soil to form a reinforced block of soil after ...

  7. Soil aggregate stability - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soil_Aggregate_Stability

    A wet sieving apparatus described Yoder [31] can be used to determine wet aggregate stability in the following procedure by Black, Kember and Chepil, [32] which was adapted by Dane, Topp, Nimmo and Perkins. [33] Sieve soil to obtain soil samples with aggregates between 2–4 mm size aggregates. Weigh out 15 g of these 2–4 mm sized aggregates.

  8. Soil compaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soil_compaction

    In geotechnical engineering, soil compaction is the process in which stress applied to a soil causes densification as air is displaced from the pores between the soil grains. When stress is applied that causes densification due to water (or other liquid) being displaced from between the soil grains, then consolidation , not compaction, has ...

  9. Soil mechanics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soil_mechanics

    If the soil particles in a sample are predominantly in a relatively narrow range of sizes, the sample is uniformly graded. If a soil sample has distinct gaps in the gradation curve, e.g., a mixture of gravel and fine sand, with no coarse sand, the sample may be gap graded. Uniformly graded and gap graded soils are both considered to be poorly ...
