STUDY OF SHEAR STRENGTH AND PERMEABILITY OF CHEMICALLY TREATED COHESIONLESS SOILS

Abstract

The aim of this research is to study some of the of the physical properties of cohesionless soils treated with organic and inorganic chemical additives added by weight of treated soil through a laboratory testing program carried out on 35 mm diameter cylindrical samples 50 - 80 mm long, using triaxial and unconfined compressive strength testing apparatus. The variables studied in this research program were: For organic additives Monomer content in the mix Initiator content in the mix Mixing water content. effect. Submergence in water effect. From the obtained results for inorganic additives, Hydrochloric acid content in the mix. For inorganic additives: Salt content in the mix. Water glass content in the mix. Mixing water content. Hydrochloric acid content in the mix. The research also looked at the effect of different environments on the shear strength. These environments were: Time effect Temperature
