GE-25 : effects of GGBS and lime/MgO on the engineering properties of Kaolin
This report investigates the use of lime-activated GGBS for improving the engineering properties of soil to be used for land reclamation purposes. A series of laboratory tests were conducted to investigate the changes in the unconfined compressive strength (UCS) of the modified soil and these tests...
