Effect of Chitosan Solution on Low-Cohesive Soil’s Shear Modulus <i>G</i> Determined through Resonant Column and Torsional Shearing Tests
In this study the effect of using a biopolymer soil stabilizer on soil stiffness characteristics was investigated. Chitosan is a bio-waste material that is obtained by chemical treatment of chitin (a chemical component of fungi or crustaceans’ shells). Using chitosan solution as a soil stabilizer is...
