Abstract

The article presents a study on dealing with sulfate-induced heave in lime-stabilized soils. It mentions the use of X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis on treated soil samples to examine the mineralogical developments at different curing periods, as well as the identification of the cured specimens' microstructural changes using a scanning electron microscope (SEM). Furthermore, the assessment of thaumasite formation during treatment of sulfate-bearing soil is presented.

Subjects
*LIMING of soils, *SOIL stabilization, *ETTRINGITE, *SULFUR in soils
Abstract

The article presents a study on sulfate-induced heave in lime-stabilized soils in Great Britain. It mentions water absorption in the ettringite and its effect on the expansion process. It also mentions the drop in the thaumasite's strength behavior as a result of the pozzalonic reactions during curing periods. Furthermore, the authors recommend using water during lime stabilization to reduce heave.
