The study has been carried out with two broad objectives – to observe the effect of crude oil contamination on consolidation properties of soil and to predict the change in the properties in the form of mathematical correlation. The properties studied here are co efficient of compression (Cv) and compression index (Cc). Four types of naturally available soil (CH, CL, CI and SC) collected from d...

offshore pipelines used for oil and gas transportation are often buried to avoid damage from fishing activities and to provide thermal insulation. thermal expansion and contraction of the pipeline during operation can lead to lateral or upheaval buckling. a safe buried pipeline design must take into account a reliable evaluation of soil uplift resistance and pipe embedment depth. while the cost...

Abstract Recently, the use of plastic products, such as polyethylene (PE) bottles and polypropylene (PP), has been significantly increased, which may lead to many environmental issues. Therefore, it is important find methods manage these waste materials without causing any ecological hazards. One wastes soil stabiliser materials. In this study, PE PP have used in form fibres. The effect stabili...

The modulus of elasticity represents the soil stiffness; it was used to design and analyze foundation, slope stability, retaining structure, etc. It is one main input parameters in finite element method for analyzing behavior. scope this study evaluate correlation between (E) cohesion (c u ) remolded undisturbed samples clayey so can assess effect lateral confining pressure on elasticity. uncon...

Cement stabilization has been widely used for improving the strength and stiffness of soft clayey soils. Cement treated soil specimens used to investigate the stress-strain behaviour in the laboratory study are usually cured for 7 days. This paper examines the effects of curing time on the strength and stress strain behaviour of cement treated marine clay under triaxial loading condition. Labor...
