Pre-compression and capillarity effect of treated expansive subgrade subjected to compressive and tensile loadings

Pavement structures often are under tension and compression mobilised by the coupled effects of traffic loads and swelling stress. Seasonal moisture variations cause capillarity rise and volumetric movement within the subgrade. The objective of this investigation is to evaluate the pre-compression a...
