摘要

尼日利亚的道路通常在没有深入了解作为道路要素基础的底土的情况下建造。道路故障通常与劣质建筑材料或设计不当有关,而没有考虑到下面的土壤。对从Arigidi/Oke-Agbe高速公路路基上采集的10个土体样品进行了工程特性研究,以确定其在公路路面上的适用性。结果表明:破坏位置以下的地基土均具有较高的塑性指数,表明其具有较高的膨胀潜力,与稳定位置的地基土相比,具有较高的吸水能力(16.1 ~ 22.4%),属于A-7-6型粘性土;压实密度低(1325 - 1928 Kg/m3), CBR值极差;8 - 31%(未浸水)和3 - 8%(浸水)表明,暴露在过多的水分下,土壤的强度降低百分比高达77%,土壤中的细粒占主导地位(> 59%)是造成不稳定程度的原因。此外,软至低刚度(49 - 131 kN/m2)和路面下垫层材料的渗透性差导致了所见的破坏特征。研究表明,路基土的适宜性和性能取决于其工程性质。

GEOTECHNICAL INFLUENCE OF UNDERLYING SOILS TO PAVEMENT FAILURE IN SOUTHWESTERN PART OF NIGERIA
Roads in Nigeria are usually constructed without in-depth knowledge of the subsoil that serves as the foundation for the road elements. Road failures are often associated to poor construction materials or inadequate design without cognisance of the underlying soils. Engineering properties of ten bulk soil samples collected from the subgrade of Arigidi/Oke-Agbe highway were investigated to determine their suitability for highway pavement. Results show that all the subgrade soils below the failed locations have higher plasticity indices, which is an indication of their high swelling potential, and they are classified as A-7-6 clayey soils with high-water adsorption capability (16.1 – 22.4%) compared to subgrade soils from the stable locations. Low compacted density (1325 – 1928 Kg/m3), extremely poor CBR values; 8 – 31% (unsoaked) and 3 – 8% (soaked) which indicate percentage reduction in strength of the soils up to 77% on exposure to excessive moisture and the predominance of fines (> 59%) in the soils are responsible for the degree of instability. Furthermore, soft to low stiffness (49 – 131 kN/m2) and poor permeability of the subgrade materials underlying the pavement result to the failure characteristics witnessed. This study shows that the suitability and behaviour of subgrade soil is dependent on its engineering properties.
