Prediction of swelling behavior of expansive soils using modified free swell index, methylene blue and swell oedometer tests
Jaleh Forouzan, Amir; Çokça, Erdal; Department of Civil Engineering (2016)
Expansive soils are recognized as problematic soils that impose several challenges for civil engineers. Such soils undergo significant volume change in case water penetrates into them, and they shrink as they lose moisture. Lightly-loaded engineering structures such as pavements, single story buildings, railways and walkways may experience severe damages when they are founded on such soils. Determination of expansive soils and quantifying their swelling potential and pressure caused by their expansion are e...

Prediction of swelling potential of Ankara soils by methylene blue test
Çokça, Erdal (Scientific and Technical research Council of Turkey - TUBITAK/Turkiye Bilimsel ve Teknik Arastirma Kurumu, 1993-01-01)
The swelling potential characteristics of Ankara soils by using different swelling potential classification methods developed by different researchers were investigated. The influence of the mineralogical composition of swelling potential of expansive clay soils and the use of Methylene Blue Test in order to predict their swelling potential were studied. A swelling potential classification method has been proposed by using clay content versus methylene blue value chart.
Stabilization of an expansive soil using phosphogypsum
Özkan, İlyas; Çokça, Erdal; Department of Civil Engineering (2015)
Expansive soils are a worldwide problem that poses several challenges for civil engineers. Such soils swell when given an access to water and shrink when they dry out. The most common and economical method for stabilizing these soils is using admixtures that prevent volume changes. Studies for treatment of expansive soils with phosphogypsum are very limited in literature. In this study the effect of phosphogypsum (PG) in reducing the swelling potential is examined. The expansive soil was prepared in the lab...
