Description
Summary:Lime soil stabilization is a well-known and often used method. One of the methods of landslide stability improvement is changing soil with materials that have better physical and mechanical characteristics. In most of the methods for determining slope stability, the main input data are internal friction angle and cohesion. The main objective of this paper was to find out if the sampled silty clay soil was suitable for lime stabilization, and to get the values of shear strength parameters from soil samples with and without added lime. The results showed that by increasing lime content, internal friction angle rises, while cohesion values decrease, as well as deformations, all the way to 15% of lime by mass. The changes in internal friction angle, cohesion and deformations were most noticeable between 0 and 5% of added lime. Samples that endured the largest pressures were those containing 10% of lime. nema
