Assesses the impact of Moroccan techniques on foundation stability in expansive soils, suggesting effective solutions for engineering challenges in Sudan.

Key Points

The aim is to evaluate the properties of expansive soils in Sudan and the effectiveness of Moroccan stabilization techniques.
Conducted laboratory testing and field observations on expansive soils
Applied statistical analysis to predict settlement patterns under varying loads
Modelled maintenance outcomes with a specific statistical formula
Predicted an average annual settlement of 15 cm for foundations
Statistical model demonstrated a high degree of accuracy in predicting soil behaviour
Moroccan techniques indicated potential for reducing foundation failures in Sudan
