Soil stabilization, using a variety of stabilizers, is common method used by engineers and designers to enhance the properties soil. The use nanomaterials for soil stabilization one most active research areas that also encompass number disciplines, including civil engineering construction materials. Soils improved could provide novel, smart, eco- environment-friendly material sustainability. In this case, carbon (CNMs) have become candidates numerous applications in engineering. main...

This paper presents the improvement of unconfined compressive strength (UCS) soil by mixing different percentages nanolime and 5% lime with soil. The UCS treated increased significantly over curing time increasing percentage nanolime. optimum results were reached at only 0.5% admixtures which much higher than admixture. may be due to ability flocculate agglomerate particles compared lime. In addition, could fill micropores while micro- nanopores as well. gain is inversely proportional...

Chemical stabilization involves application of chemical admixtures to improve the behaviour soil. Thus, this study was carried out validate effectiveness nanolime additives as soil stabilizer. Lime and were chosen additive investigate its effect on some geotechnical properties clayey The mixed with ranging from 0.2 1.0% by dry weight results indicate that adding a low percentage can lead noticeable reduction in plasticity. It is found considerable improvement compaction achieved compared...

In Malaysia, although there are several researches on engineering properties of residual soils, however study the hydraulic conductivity metasedimentary soils is still lacking. Construction containment walls like slurry wall techniques can be achieved with approximately 5 x 10-7cm/sec. The objectives were to determine physical and influence 1%, 3%, 5% 10% cement parameters. coefficient soil naturally soil-cement mixtures determined by using falling head test. According test, original was...

Nanocarbons (NCs) have exceptional mechanical, electrical, and thermal properties as compared to conventional carbon fibers. In previous studies, chemical agent has been used disperse NCs in the colloid. The main objective of this study is investigate dispersion stability distilled water measurement Zeta Potential value after using ultrasonic method (physics method). Two types were study, nanotube (CNT), Carbon nanofiber (CNF) with different amounts sonication time 2 12 minutes....
