Influence of Microstructural and Geotechnical Behavior of Expansive Soil Using Ultra-Fine Slag and Calcium Chloride
The present study is to elucidate the efficacy of ultra-fine slag and CaCl2 in ameliorating the engineering properties of expansive soils. An experimental program has evaluated the effects of ultra-fine slag (4, 8, and 12%) and CaCl2 (0.5 and 1%) contents on the FSI, plasticity, compaction, unconfined compressive strength, and microstructural (SEM and XRD) tests of expansive soil. Both admixtures were added independently and blended into the expansive soil. In addition of admixtures into expansive soil results shown that plasticity index, swelling behavior blends decreased and dry unit weight and unconfined compressive strength is increased in a combination of soil with micro-fine slag up to 8% mixing and calcium chloride 1%, however furthermore addition of micro-fine slag and CaCl2 leads to decrease in the UCS test. It was found that the optimum quantity of material for a favorable combination of soil +8% micro-fine slag +1% CaCl2 was taken for further study in view of its economy and also it is well suited for sustainable development purposes.
