This work presents an experimental study on the physico-mechanical and microstructural characteristics of stabilised soils and the effect of wetting and drying cycles on their durability as road subgrade materials. The durability of expansive road su... Read More about Wet–dry cycles and microstructural characteristics of expansive subgrade treated with sustainable cementitious waste materials.
