The Compression Behavior of Contaminated Clay under Coupled Temperature and Chemical Solution

Article Preview

Abstract:

The compressibility of contaminated soil was analyzed through the consolidation test. The results show that, with increasing of the acid concentration, the soil compression is increased. The compression of soil contaminated by alkaline is larger than the soil contaminated by acid. The temperature at beginning section plays catalytic effect on soil structural damage, and the amount of compression of the soil is significantly increased with an increase of temperature. When temperature is increased to a certain value, the amount of compression decreases conversely, this may the cohesion between the soil particles is strengthened. However, with the further rise in temperature, the soil structure shows irreversible damage.
