Soil-Water Retention Properties of Cement Treated Clay
The soil-water characteristic curve (SWCC) is a widely used experimental means for assessing fundamental properties of unsaturated soils for a wide range of soil suction values. However, a limited number of studies have focused on soil-water retention properties of natural and chemically treated expansive soils via the SWCC. The present work is motivated by the lack of experimental evidence of this type. The soil-water characteristic curves of an expansive clay from south Arlington, Texas, were measured under both natural and cement treated conditions using pressure plate (suction range of 0–690 kPa) and filter paper (suction range of 690–1,000,000 kPa) techniques. SWCC test results were analyzed using Fredlund and Xing's SWCC model equation. SWCC test and modeling results show a relatively minor, though systematic influence of cement dosage on the soil's entry values and SWCC model parameters.
