Overview

Investigating biopolymers and Calcium Chloride enhances silty soil strength, implying eco-friendly soil stabilization methods.

Key Points

  • Significant improvements in strength parameters were observed using biopolymers in silty soil, enhancing its load-bearing capacity.
  • The combination of Guar Gum and Xanthan Gum with Calcium Chloride demonstrated effective soil stabilization over time with significant strength gains.
  • Unconfined compressive strength (UCS) and direct shear tests indicated improved cohesion and internal friction angle in treated samples compared to controls.
  • Biopolymers create gel-like structures in soil, and Calcium Chloride enhances cross-linking to improve soil strength in environmental applications.
