Effect of Modified Moisture Barriers on Slopes Stabilized with Recycled Plastic Pins
(2019-08-09)
High plasticity expansive clayey soils are prone to repeated swelling and shrinkage due to cyclic climatic variations. These variations lead to desiccation cracks that act as pathways for rainfall intrusion into the slope, ...
EFFECT OF MODIFIED MOISTURE BARRIER IN MITIGATING PAVEMENT DISTRESSES DUE TO EXPANSIVE SUBGRADE
(2021-05-07)
Surficial distresses in roadways of Texas are very common due to presence of high plastic clayey soil in the subgrade. Increased sensitivity of high plastic clay towards seasonal moisture change results in repeated swelling ...
Performance Evaluation of the Modified Moisture Barrier in Stabilizing Shallow Slope Failures
(2022-12-16)
Each year significant number of highway slope failures are reported in the United States, especially in states like Texas where expansive clayey soil is prevalent. Slopes constructed over expansive clay often experience ...
