This paper seeks to investigate the effect of geosynthetic material on the swell reduction of such soils. A series of large-scale long-term soil column experiments were conducted on a very high plasticity reactive soil under simulated rainfall conditions. Non-woven geosynthetics combined with geogrid and woven geosynthetics were used as primary geosynthetic material to provide reinforcement and drainage for the soil mass. The obtained results revealed that these geosynthetics did not improve the California Bearing Ratio values of the soil. However, when placed in the soil mass, the geosynthetic materials greatly reduced the total swell of the soil. Visual observations and the experimental data on water content, suction, and vertical displacements indicated that the geosynthetics provided better drainage of the soil mass. This limited the time of water–soil interaction, thus reducing the total swell of the soil.","PeriodicalId":51804,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Geosynthetics and Ground Engineering","volume":"168 ","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135869904","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}

However, the gap in the current literature is the lack of a comprehensive study regarding the geomechanical behaviour of fly ash geopolymer-treated clay subjected to long-term sulfate attack, particularly in terms of potential ettringite formation and the corresponding impact on cementitious soil structure. The goal of this paper is to address this knowledge gap and provide a comprehensive study to fulfil it. In this work, sulfate attack was simulated by submerging geopolymer-treated clay specimens in two distinct sulfate-based solutions (i.e., sodium and magnesium), for one year. Subsequently, comparative analyses of the geomechanical and microstructural changes in geopolymer-treated clay under various curing conditions were conducted through unconfined compressive strength, direct shear, volume change and microscopic tests. The findings indicate that the addition of geopolymer for the stabilisation of clay soil significantly improves soil strength without affecting the soil volumetric response. Although the clay used exhibited similar qualitative stress–strain behaviour across all simulated attacks, notable quantitative differences emerged in the peak strength, stiffness and shear strength parameters. Such discrepancies can primarily be attributed to the varying buffering capacities (i.e., pH changes associated with acidification) of the sulfate solutions and the subsequent residual pH, cementitious product formation and strength enhancement within the treated clay.","PeriodicalId":51804,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Geosynthetics and Ground Engineering","volume":"10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136102981","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}
