Building construction is influenced by the existing soil conditions. Clay one of soils that have deficiencies, both in bearing strength and nature itself, so stabilization needed. Soil an attempt to improve properties. The purpose this study was analyze physical mechanical properties effect wood ash, lime, styrofoam on CBR value. samples were located Tumbang Liting Village, Kasongan Lama Kating...

Bentonite is a mixture of clay and non-clay minerals. Montmorillonite mineral dominant in bentonite. Silica alumina bond the crystal structure montmorillonite. Therefore, they cannot contribute to pozzolanic reaction. Heat treatment bentonite leads destruction montmorillonite converting silica reactive phases. Thermally activated (TAB) relatively low pozzolan when used as partial replacement Po...

Pyrochemistry is a promising technology that can provide benefits for the safe reprocessing of relatively fresh spent nuclear fuel with short storage time (3–5 years). The radioactive waste emanating from this process an electrolyte (LiCl–KCl) mixture fission products included. Such wastes are rarely immobilized through common matrices such as cement and glass. In study, samples ceramic materia...

In recent years, Pillared InterLayered Clays (PILCs) have been widely used in several applications; in particular in adsorption and catalysis. The research interest in this family of solids has increased considerably. Clay minerals provide distinct nanometer-scaled layers and interlayers for engineering them as active catalysts. As such, strategic design and preparation has led to a variety of ...

Soil reinforcement can be considered as the combination of two parts. One part is soil for compressive stress capacity and another part is some material such as geosynthetics such as steel belts and fibers for tensile stress capacity. Soil improvement is one of the useful methods to increase the strength parameters of the soil. The main goal of this study is to evaluate the effects of GFRP on t...

Abstract The red clay is widely distributed in Guizhou province, which characterized by high natural moisture content, difficult compaction and serious shrinkage crackingin, phosphogypsum discharged for 5 million tons every year province. For the sake of effectively reducing accumulation phosphogypsum, mixtures were prepared with cement as a curing agent mass ratios to 1:1, 1:2 1:3 (low content...
