Shearing and Hydraulic Behavior of MICP Treated Silty Sand
Microbial induced calcite precipitation (MICP) is a biochemical reaction that takes place within the soil producing calcite cementation bonding soil grains together. In this study, MICP method was applied to both Nevada sand and Nevada sand containing 15% silt to assess their improvement in monotonic shear strength, cyclic resistance and also changes in permeability. The change in shear strength properties are evaluated by performing undrained monotonic and cyclic direct simple shear tests on both treated and untreated samples. Reduction in permeability as a result of calcite precipitation is also another objective of this research which is investigated by performing constant head tests on untreated and MICP treated samples. The results show improvement in shear response and reduction in excess pore water pressure in both treated samples. The cyclic resistance also increases by applying MICP. The permeability of soil reduces by applying MICP but the amount of reduction is low in comparison to the change in permeability when fines are added to the Nevada sand.
