Study on the Engineering Properties of the Stabilized Mucky Clay As Backfill Material in Highway Embankment Projects
This paper proposed a method to use stabilized mucky clay as backfill material in highway embankment projects. Sand is added into the mucky clay in the proposed method with the purposes of increasing the permeability of mucky clay, reducing the initial water content, and improving its mechanical properties. Then, lime powder is added into the mixture of the mucky clay and sand to improve engineering properties of the treated mucky clay to fit the requirement of the projects. Behaviors of the treated mucky clay are also tested and analyzed using a series of lab test. Test results demonstrated that the stabilized mucky clay using the proposed method is adequate for backfill material in embankment projects.
