Strength reduction mechanism of cement-treated soil under seawater environment
Improving soft grounds with cement or lime is commonly used to increase their strength and deformation characteristics. However, the properties of cement/lime-treated soil deteriorate in seawater because magnesium salts accelerate calcium leaching. In this study, changes in the unconfined compressiv...
