Utilization of demolished tile material and cement to stabilize marine clay

The presence of marine clay soil in the fundamental establishment has been liable for the disappointment in a few geotechnical designs. Substance techniques for soil improvement are the typical practices to work on the strength of soils. Nonetheless, distributions on the key microstructural conduct...
