Contribution of loamy soil treatment to improve embankments performance

This paper shows for a loamy soil the benefits of lime treatment on the evolution of the geomechanical properties governing the slope stability and the resistance against erosion of embankments. The main results indicate that the effective internal friction angle (φ) is quite unchanged through time,...
