The Use of Fiber to Improve the Characteristics of Collapsible Soil Stabilized with Cement

Urbanization and development in arid and semiarid have brought increased interest in the improvement of water sensitive soils susceptible to volume change. This investigating aims to study the possibility of using fibers along cement to improve the mechanical properties of collapsible soil and hence improve cement-treated soil behavior. The testing program conducted includes compaction characterizations, collapse potential, and shear parameters....
