Swelling and collapse behavior of expansive marl and its implications in foundation engineering
Expansive soils increase their volume upon wetting, but under high vertical stresses may exhibit collapse, with the latter aspect being rather overlooked in foundation engineering. Oedometer swelling/collapse tests on expansive Pliocene marls of various calcium carbonate content and plasticity index...
