The study adopts the PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis) method to comprehensively analyze existing research in this area.The utilization of waste materials for soil stabilization has gained significant attention due to environmental concerns and sustainability objectives. In this review, we explore the effectiveness of using demolished tile waste as a stabilizer for marine clay soil. The analysis reveals that different types of waste materials exhibit varying degrees of improvement in the soil's properties. The results demonstrate a consistent increase in shear strength after stabilization, indicating the suitability of demolished tile waste as a stabilizing agent for soft clay soils. Interestingly, the highest strength is not obtained at the largest additive quantities. Instead, most research papers report a peak in strength at specific additive proportions and curing time, followed by a decline. This phenomenon occurs when the hydration process is complete, and large lumps form between the clay particles. Furthermore, the size of the additive also plays a crucial role in enhancing the strength of problematic soils. Optimal additive size leads to better distribution and interaction with the clay particles, contributing to improved stabilization results. This review provides valuable insights into the potential of utilizing demolished tile waste for enhancing the engineering properties of marine clay soil. The findings highlight the importance of carefully selecting the type and quantity of additives to achieve the desired stabilization outcomes.","PeriodicalId":277750,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Sustainable Underground Exploration","volume":"138 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135357404","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Not only that, the economic gain made in the last decade, along with the fast growth of the world population, has come at a huge environmental cost. One of the never-ending issues is carbon dioxide emission and notably, the construction sector is no exception to mean to contribute through many development activities. Therefore, this study focuses on the compressibility behaviour of Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag (GGBS) treated kaolin clay due to carbonation. This study discusses the effect of carbonation on GGBS-treated kaolin as an effort to use sustainable materials which able to improve the geotechnical properties of soil and safe to say, help to reduce the emission of CO2. Testing program via one-dimensional consolidation test found that the compressibility characteristics improved as increased the GGBS content. Overall, the results illustrate that higher GGBS content and longer curing period gives lower compressibility characteristic. It was also found that the carbonated kaolin sample further improve the compressibility characteristics as compared to ambient condition of treated kaolin sample. In conclusion, GGBS can improve the compressibility characteristic of kaolin with carbonation consideration.","PeriodicalId":277750,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Sustainable Underground Exploration","volume":"33 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135357406","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Peat soils have low shear strength and cannot afford large loads. Various treatment methods are used to stabilize peat soils and most of them use cement as a main binder to increase the strength of peat soils. However, the use of large quantities of cement is not environment friendly due to the release of carbon dioxide (CO2) and wastage of energy consumption by the cement production industry. Therefore, the introduction of SCBA as a substitution binder for some cement dosage is good as well as reducing the degradation of dumping waste which is increasingly uncontrollable. The objective of this study is to identify the basic and physical properties of peat soil from Pontian, Johor. In addition, this study was also conducted to identify the impact of SCBA on peat soil stabilization with cement. There are 5 different mixtures for cement and SCBA which are C100, C95S5, C90S10, C85S15 and C80S20 used in this study. Sample C95S5 with mixtures 95% cement and 5% SCBA were the optimum samples for this study based on unconfined compression strength (UCS) tests. The C95S5 sample successfully achieved the maximum strength of the whole sample with a strength of 190 kN/m2, 209 kN/m2, and 219 kN/m2 recorded for wet curing periods of 7,14 and 28 days. Therefore, the use of SCBA materials in the stabilization of peat soils with cement and calcium chloride (CaCl2) is seen to have a positive effect in increasing the shear strength of Hemic peat soil samples.","PeriodicalId":277750,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Sustainable Underground Exploration","volume":"131 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135358338","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A two and three dimensional (2D, 3D) finite element model study that simulates a geosynthetic-reinforced and geosynthetic-encased stone pile-supported embankment on soft ground is presented in this paper. To study the effect of reinforcement and encasing on the vertical displacement of stone piles and soft soil, numerical analyses are performed. The results show a significant reduction in settlement with the casing, which is believed to be a direct result of the additional containment pressure created by the geosynthetic casing.

The shorelines of Pantai Punggur were chosen as the subject location for this investigation on soil shear strength and shoreline changes of eroded areas in Batu Pahat, Johor. Pantai Punggur is situated on the west coast of Johor, with a latitude of 1.62° to 1.87° N and a longitude of 102.78° to 103.19° E. Aerial photographs and field observation data were used to determine the geomorphological components of the Pantai Punggur shoreline using an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). The study conducted is to produce shoreline changes mapping diagram and analysis soil shear strengths across different sampling locations were measured and correlate with shoreline changes at zones A, B, C, D and E. The aerial image that has been captured by the drone was analyzed using Pix4D and Global Mapper software. Based on the data of shoreline changes zone A portrays the highest changes followed by zone B and C. As for zone D and E its shows quite a small change. Within one month interval, Pantai Punggur coastline experiences changes in about 1.57 meters. From the undrained shear strength test at 0.5 m depth at HT and MT data for December 2021, zone A with Cu reading are more than 4.5 kPa followed by zones B, C, D and lowest at zone E. Next, at depth 0.5 m and 1.0 m data for December 2021 at HT level, zone A with Cu reading is more than 4.5 kPa at the 0.5 m and 1.0 m depth and other zones are below than 3.0 kPa. The depth of soil also influences the data of this study. The correlation of changes in soil shear strength with shoreline changes is reported to have a linear correlation with R2 value is 0.9261. It can conclude that the effect of soil shear strength on shoreline changes at Batu Pahat coastal area cause by the changes in soil shear strength (Cu) gives a large effect of shoreline changes.","PeriodicalId":277750,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Sustainable Underground Exploration","volume":"48 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-11-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126903010","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A comprehensive study of soft ground needs to be reviewed and identified before construction can start. Various techniques can be used to improve the soil. However, this study focuses on using material namely expanded polystyrene. The geotextile is embedded with expanded polystyrene to strengthen the soil condition. This study adopted the soil parameters from East Coast Expressway. There are two models in this study, which are earth embankment and EPS embankment. The settlement of the earth embankment is compared with the EPS embankment after construction. The Mohr-Coulomb parameters are used to model the soft soil and embankments, while the linear elastic parameters were adopted to model the EPS and geotextile. This study produced two embankment models, the conventional embankment models with and without surcharge. The second model is an EPS embankment with various densities (22 kg/m3, 29 kg/m3, and 39 kg/m3). The settlement is recorded for ten years after the embankment construction was completed. The difference settlement value for the conventionalmodel is 28mm. The settlement value for EPS 22 is 3.18mm, EPS 29 is 2.06mm, and EPS 39 is 1.51mm. For the geotextile embedded in EPS, the settlement for EPS 22 is 3.17mm, EPS 29 is 2.04mm, and EPS 39 is 1.49mmrespectively. Since EPS uses three different densities, from the prediction of PLAXIS 2D, the higher density gives the lower value of the settlement. However, when the geotextile is embedded with EPS, there is no significant difference in settlement behaviour. In conclusion, the model with a surcharge gives a lower settlement than themodel without a surcharge. But the expanded polystyrene block is the best model to reduce the settlement compared with the conventional model with a surcharge. Different densities of EPS resulted in different settlement value, and EPS 39 gives the lowest settlement value. In terms of the geotextile embedded with EPS, it does not give a significant change in settlement.","PeriodicalId":277750,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Sustainable Underground Exploration","volume":"67 2","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-11-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114010432","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Failure of tank foundation usually occurred when the foundation system cannot support the weight of the tank or the soil bearing capacity of the area failed to resist the imposed stress from oil tank inclusive of foundation’s self-weight. Failure of tank foundation can lead to pivoting effect and cracking on the foundation slab. Hence, the right choice of foundation system with reference to the bearing capacity of foundation soil is important to ensure the stability of tank foundation. Thus, this study was carried out in order to determine the deformation characteristics of foundation slab of oil tank foundation on different soil conditions with the aim to determine optimum design of oil tank foundation. The dimensions and design of the models were based on a published case study. Series of analyses with finite element models were conducted using STAAD Foundation CONNECT Edition V9. The models were aimed to analyze the stability of foundation structure, and deformation characteristics of the foundation slabs on different soil conditions. Three types of foundation system (raft, pile raft and pile foundation) were modelled in STAAD Foundation CONNECT Edition V9. The findings showed that the most optimum design for foundation structure on stiff residual soil is raft foundation.
