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...
Estimation of dynamic soil properties and soil amplification ratios with alternative techniques
Şişman, Fatma Nurten; Askan Gündoğan, Ayşegül; Özacar, Atilla Arda; Department of Earthquake Studies (2013)
Earthquakes are among the most destructive natural disasters affecting urban populations. Structural damage caused by the earthquakes varies depending not only on the seismic source and propagation properties but also on the soil properties. The amplitude and frequency content of seismic shear waves reaching the earth’s surface is dependent on local soil conditions. It is well known that the soft sediments on top of hard bedrock can greatly amplify the ground motion and cause severe structural damage. When ...
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...
A study on response of horizontally layered soil deposits to random base excitations.

Stabilization of expansive soils using Bigadiç zeolite (boron by-product)
Demirbaş, Güneş; Çokça, Erdal; Department of Civil Engineering (2009)
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. In this study the effect of using Bigadic zeolite (boron by-product) in reducing the swelling potential is examined. The expansive soil is prepared in the laboratory by mixturing kaolinite and bentonite. Bigadic zeolite (boron by...
