Abstract Accurately identifying soil texture and understanding behaviour in terms of plasticity is a crucial initial step properly characterizing site, which turn facilitates appropriate sampling scheduling laboratory tests. Soil identification techniques literature are effective at assessing pure clays silt–clay mixtures. This paper presents comparative study between field tests, classifications, Atterberg limits, mineralogical chemical data, SEM imagery, stereographical microscopy. Natural...
Abstract Gypseous soils occur in the western arid and semi-arid regions of South Africa Namibia. These exhibit a complex nature abnormal behaviour due to their gypsum content as such they have become more prevalent research. As these are finding use industry, an astute understanding hydrogeological properties is required. Powdery gypseous soil samples collected from Northern Cape (Geelvloer) Western (Rooiberg R355) Provinces, well prepared sample, subject XRD analysis, particle size...
