| Abstract: |
The constructional activities in the coastal areas often demand deep foundations because of the poor engineering properties and the related problems arising from weak soil at shallow depths. The very low bearing capacity of the foundation bed causes shear failure and excessive settlements. Further, the high-water table and limited depth of the top sandy layer in these areas restrict the depth of foundation thereby further reducing the safe bearing capacity. The weak soils such as loose sand with extendable depths requires high precautions and improvement before using as bearing layer. Enhancing the bearing capacity along with reduction of the expected settlement is the main measures for the improvement efficiency. The aim of this study is to investigate the improvement of bearing capacity for loose sandy soil by mixing with different bentonite ratio. Experimental work was conducted for this purpose using a laboratory physical model. The laboratory tests such as compaction, direct shear, and consolidation tests were performed to measure the mechanical characteristics of the stabilized materials. The experimental analysis shown that the addition of 25% of bentonite to the low bearing capacity soil performed as good and increased two times the SBC than the soil sample. |
